@Philippe Landry:

Blues By Six: I commented on this specific setlist and asked the user for a source. Additionally I wrote a comment on his profile.

Fats Domino: done
But please ask for cover-tags to be changed in this thread and for album assignments in the following thread: http://www.setlist.fm/forum/setlistfm/website-support/album-tracks-classified-as-other-23d6bc03

[traditional]: that's the way it is, we are using this “artist” as a place holder and the MBID that shows traditional in brackets is the correct one according to musicbrainz.

Soon they will all be grouped under this artist. Anyway everyday one can be solved and edited to the correct artist, so the list should shorten over the time.

This is a song By Delaney & Bonnie and Friends

http://musicbrainz.org/recording/8b231e75-e660-4da8-8d67-87913d6506ce

It won't let me credit it to Delaney & Bonnie and Friends

It's on the album D&B TOGETHER but this album was first issued as COUNTRY LIFE.

Another song that has this is Oasis' Wonderwall. It says it originally appeared on an album called Love Is Hell, which after some quick research shows that it was a cover released by Ryan Adams many years later. Seems ridiculous to attribute it to that album. Can't figure a way to fix it either.

Thank you for reporting. Wrong data based on a known bug.

I want to credit this

http://www.setlist.fm/stats/songs/beethoven-33d66499.html?song=Beethoven's+Ninth+Symphony

to Ludwig Van Beethoven. They'll only do it to Ludwig Van Beethoven and Robert Irving. Who the hell is Robert Irving?

Written by Mark Knopfler, this song was first issued on a Jeff Healey album.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hell_to_Pay_(The_Jeff_Healey_Band_album)#Track_listing

wikipedia says:
In 1990, Dire Straits performed alongside Elton John and Eric Clapton at Knebworth Festival, playing three songs: “Solid Rock”, “Money for Nothing” and a song which Knopfler prefaced as an experimental song, unsure if they should record it on a following record.44 The song, titled, “I Think I Love You Too Much”, a blues rock piece with solos by both Knopfler and Clapton; this song also appeared on the 1990 album Hell To Pay as a gift45 to Canadian blues/jazz artist Jeff Healey from Knopfler. This was prior to the time that Knopfler, Illsley and manager Ed Bicknell decided to reform the band the following year.46

@PhilippeLandry

Beethoven: the artist used is not correct, but the correct MBID leads to:

The MBID 1f9df192-a621-4f54-8850-2c5373b7eac9 is either unknown or the artist was intentionally filtered.

many classical composers are filtered automatically and can't be used at the moment. Sure something to work on, but that is how it is right now. I will leave the wrong cover-tags for the moment to later change them to the correct artist when possible.

that is not correct, the correct artist is The Jeff Healey Band. If I would change the cover to Jeff Healey as a solo artist, it would also fail to show the correct album.

@Philippe Landry:

please don't forget to change the incorrect cover tags on Paul Heaton's Little Red Rooster

I'm doing my best in order to put the right post in the right thread. I swear. I hope this one is at the right place.

It was really released on the LANSHARK! album by Fang

OK, it's always kind a error search when a song is not assigned to the correct album.

You're citing two different artists “Fang” in your post, so obiously one has to be wrong. If you take a look at musicbrainz and search for “Fang” you will see seven artists called “Fang”. Then you search for the correct one and check if the used MBID is the same as in the setlist.

This is the correct one: 6edb07aa-c153-42dd-8554-f1859c0fafa5. So the other one has to be changed to the “correct” artist, which I have done now for you.

So you're right with this thread this time. Two different “Fang” in a cover-tag, only one is correct.

Of all the people who played this song, there is:
Marky Ramone

Marky Ramone

There is two groups in the database called Marky Ramone

That's because there are two artists names Marky Ramone in the MusicBrainz database.
http://musicbrainz.org/search?query=Marky+Ramone&type=artist&method=indexed

I moved all the setlists to the correct artist (the Ramones drummer) though.
