If I understand correctly there is no RDA rule that is equivalent to AACR's 21.23C1 "If a sound recording containing works by different persons or bodies has a collective title, enter it under the heading for the person or body represented as principal performer" So if I had a recording by a pop singer (place your favorite singer here) singing various jazz songs by different composers that singer would be regarded as a "performer" contributing to an expression and coded in MARC tag 700. Correct? If this is correct, this will create a lot of problems for libraries who shelve their material by either "main entry" or via some means of cuttering.
