This may be a very silly question - can we add tags to each entry? For eg , names of singers etc are sometimes spelt in different ways.In order to cover all the variations, should we add tags? Also , would it help to add the Raaga of each song. I am sure there are songs which have more than one raaga. presumably they are separated by a comma? And how do we want to export this database to the group? Is the only solution to host it external to the group? or could we somehow attach it to the group? Sorry about the stupid questions. Could we also add a column for the musicians who worked on each album? and sound engineer as well. Try and capture all the data on the cd perhaps? but this might be going overboard. No harm adding a column I guess. Should Genre have a subdivision to say what the song is predominantly about? patriotic, mother, wedding song etc? Thanks for this Roshan. Great start. I think before people start entering data into this, we should decide on whether more columns/data are required and agree on it collectively? Just a suggestion.
