Show Notes (Mostly)
Here are my overly complicated show notes. They consist of:
Artist/Band Name – “Song Name” – Album Name – (Band’s/Artist’s Country of Origin, Year of Song’s Original Release)
If no album name appears, that means it was released as a standalone single. It may have appeared on an album or a compilation later, but initial release was a single not tied to any particular album. Alain Johannes Trio and Al Green below are examples.
The album name is not necessarily the album on which it first appeared, but the album on which you’d be most able to find it if you went looking. The Camarão track is an example of this, as the album it first appeared on in 1971 was called O Quente Em São João.
Country of Origin is the birthplace of the artist if it’s a single artist. Or the birthplace of the band’s members if they all were born in the same country. In the event they come from different countries, the country cited is where the band was formed. If there are individual artists, especially when it’s “X feat. Y” and they each come from a different country, the countries are both/all shown.
Year listed is the year of original release. With Camarão as an example again, the compilation you can find it on is Imaginary Soundtrack to a Brazilian Western Movie…which came out in 2018. But the track’s original release year was 1971.
I have no idea why this level of detail is important to me, but it is and I will discuss it with my therapist I promise.
I might say something of more substance next time. But I’ve been saying that since third grade. So.
