DJKC
true. but while I've managed to explain my perceptions of the difference in general appearance and presentation between Koreans and Japanese while drunk and speaking in Japanese to a drunk Japanese girl, I don't think I did it in a way that would stand up to much scrutiny if put down on paper. especially if I had to to cite examples and put on a proper bibliography

I'm going through my music collection, decided to tag them using MusicBrainz... I was wondering, if you could give me a hand concerning the policy for multiple band names.
2005-10-01 27432, 2005
srotta
Basically, I have several albums by J. Karjalainen, who has done music for about 25 years. He's done it with about three bands, and in addition, I think there's at least one album that has only his name.
2005-10-01 27436, 2005
srotta
The current MusicBrainz information seems to have most of the albums under "J. Karjalainen", and a couple under "J. Karjalainen Yhtyeineen", "J. Karjalainen ja Mustat Lasit" and "J. Karjalainen Electric Sauna"...
2005-10-01 27457, 2005
srotta
Well, you get the picture. However, most, if not all, of those albums under "J. Karjalainen" are actually officially recorded under those other names. So, should I edit album information, or not?
2005-10-01 27401, 2005
srotta
Fact is, of course, that all of those are commonly known as "J. Karjalainen" - even though there's always been a named band behind him, and it's been on record labels, those guys are quite invisible compared to the lead.

There are changes in the composition of the band, though, so I guess in that sense they should definitely be separated...
