Thoughts on recording
==Who are you?==


I've spoken to the band about this, which includes one recording engineer, and all agree that a recording is a recording.
My name is Mud, 36 years old, from Norfolk, England. Well known for his multi-coloured hair and complete lack of dress sense and colour co-ordination.
The band go into the studio, record a track, it's mixed, that's the recording. It may be released on a CD, vinyl, cassette, digital download, it may appear on an album, or EP or a various compilation or as a single download, but it's still the same recording, to say it's different is nonsensical to all of us.


Different recording sessions produce different recordings, not how it's released.
==What are your prefered scopes on Music Brainz?==

UK 1980's punk bands, punk bands in general, indie, gothic & alternative bands. Adding band members until I can complete a huge family tree of punk. Adding complete label discographys for small independant labels. Adding AR links for every person credited on a release. Splitting mixed artists, correcting mis-credited artists, and generally trying to get every detail 100% correct.

Thoughts on recording

I've spoken to the band about this, which includes one recording engineer, and all agree that a recording is a recording. The band go into the studio, record a track, it's mixed, that's the recording. It may be released on a CD, vinyl, cassette, digital download, it may appear on an album, or EP or a various compilation or as a single download, but it's still the same recording, to say it's different is nonsensical to all of us.

Different recording sessions produce different recordings, not how it's released.
