The artist-artist should be doable. The question is how much accuracy you
want; second/alternating, freelance and so on. Promotions - maybe Foo was
hired as a tutti player first. In many cases it will be hard to find this
data.
Also when is it OK to use this, and when should you not (most groups have a
leader)?

Artist - recording is the easiest, I suppose: data is available and
unambigous.

Artist - release sounds weird to me, is it just somewhere to put the info
if you're lazy?
