name correction

Hi,

I am Jeff "Houndog" Schiller. When I search for that name Jeff Schiller comes up as having one composer credit, for the New Century Sax Quartet. This is correct. When I click on the credits tab however, there are a bunch of albums that I did not participate on. There must be another Jeff Schiller. 

The first 5 credits are not me. The first credit that is me is the Art Lillard credit, where I played flute and am also composer. This should also be in the composer tab shouldn't it?

The next 3 credits are not me. The next credit, Swingadelic, is me, as arranger.

The next 15 credits are not me. The next credit, Songs of David is me, as flute and clarinet.

The next 3 credits are not me. The next 3 credits, Bodega Rock, Back to my Roots, and A Letter to Harvey Milk are me.

Could you please put the credits for Art Lillard (Reasons to be Thankful), Swingadelic (Big Band Blues), Songs of David, Bodega Rock, Back to my Roots, and A Letter to Harvey Milk under my name: Jeff "Houndog" Schiller? I hope this will clear up the confusion.

Thank you very much,

Jeff "Houndog" Schiller

Hey Jeff,

Please take a look at this page in our FAQ which illustrates the best way to get this solved:

https://www.allmusic.com/faq/topic/splitcredits

AllMusic has my credits combined with somebody else's. How can these be split up?

 
Artists with the same or very similar names are accidentally combined on occasion by our data provider TiVo. To get them properly split, please follow the information on the Submit Corrections links available in the sidebar on the artist page. 

Please be as detailed as possible to aid the data team in splitting the credits correctly.

An example would be: "My name is Joe Smith and I am an oboe player. The database has my credits listed incorrectly on this page https://www.allmusic.com/artist/joe-smith-MN0000123456

The credits that should be applied to my work are:
https://www.allmusic.com/album/love-songs-mw0000202435 (Oboe, Clarinet)
https://www.allmusic.com/album/more-love-songs-mw0000202499 (Oboe)
https://www.allmusic.com/album/even-more-songs-mw0000202555 (Oboe, Handclaps)"

Similarly, if an album by another band is listed under your name, use the Submit Corrections link on your page to indicate clearly which albums are yours, and which should be moved to another artist.

Thanks Zac, I'll try that!
