As I said in one of my edits, I seem to recall a style guideline (probably just a proposal) which suggested ArtistA - Track1 title / ArtistB - track2 title. I can’t find that now and it would have been years ago, but stuck in my mind that way. Or maybe it just stuck in my head in a fever-dream at some point. For now I certainly think the split release title style is essentially useless for releases with only two tracks, and that listing just the titles is the better option. That said, it would be nice if it could be just left blank, and have MB automatically handle the display of whatever’s necessary to distinguish it in album listings. —Alex Mauer “hawke” _______________________________________________ MusicBrainz-style mailing list [email protected] http://lists.musicbrainz.org/mailman/listinfo/musicbrainz-style
