Reposting songs...?

[pdxdjazz]

Thanks Bobsax,

Do you think it best to start a new thread for (a corrected or reharmonized) song ... ?

It's best to share NEW (to the forums) songs ONE AT A TIME (in the most appropriate forum**) in their own (titled) thread to make them easy to find, download and discuss.

Share different (additional) versions of already posted tunes in the existing discussion thread for that song.
Please use the search feature (magnifying glass icon at the top of the page) to check before posting.

If there's not already a discussion thread for that title, you can start one.
(thread title: <song title - composer name(s)>)

What constitutes a "different version" is subject to discussion.
A different turnaround? Arrangement?
"vanilla" changes vs. rich qualities...?
A "wrong" version (but it's how I like to play it)?
As performed by <artist>?

posted previously:
Multiple versions of songs would be less of an issue if when posting a re-harm or alternate version, members would include some source information or description:
"here's my own version using different changes” or "as performed by <artist name>" or "from Vanilia Book 3” etc.

When possible include a brief descriptive label in the chart's song title too. That helps members identify different versions in your their libraries.

When a new user searches for a title and is presented with several choices, the additional info is helpful.

Different versions are welcome but should all be posted in the discussion thread for that song.

Playlists as posted in the past have been very helpful to increase our content and to help grow the forums and they will continue to remain accessible in our archives. Now, with thousands of songs and many comprehensive "get-started" sticky-playlists, it will be easier to find and compare additional versions when they are posted in single-song discussion threads.
Moving forward, random playlists, gig-lists etc. belong in the sandbox.

**Q: In which forum should a song be posted?
A: "the most appropriate"

But.... There are plenty of songs that are commonly played in multiple styles and have been covered and become "hits"
in ways the composer probably never envisioned. Ah, those pesky crossovers...
That's why there may be a discussion thread for the same song-title in more than one genre-forum.
A "good-tune” just...works. That's a good thing.

It's a daunting process....
Thanks,
