    Cover Art Missing

    Anne Bello · 1 · Last reply by Zac

    Hello, I am Paul Oscher's Digital Manager, and I noticed that the cover art for his latest CD is missing.  How can we get that fixed?  Is it something you can do, or what do I need to do?

    Thank you in advance!

    Sufjan Stevens - The Ascension Review

    Chris · 3 · Last reply by Chris

    Are there any plans to review Sufjan Stevens album, The Ascension?

    Also, and at the risk of sounding like a stalker - I remember reading on Twitter recently that the chief editor enjoyed both the new Jarvis Jocker record - Jarv... Is, and the new Lydia Loveless record - Daughter. Are there any plans to review them too?

    Love the work.

    Why is it that when I do a search I get 10 results for the same song?

    Kevin York · 1 · Last reply by Zac

    Why is it that I have to open up 3-20 links to get a full set of albums for a song.      For instance    Look up Da' Butt by E.U. and hit enter.   You will see dozens of links and have to click on each one because none have the whole set.   Some show no albums..  others may show a few.  It is exhausting.  

     I am curious if something is broken or if it has always been this way?  I have another 1000-2000 songs to add albums too.  Allmusic has been great, but each tab bogs my i5

    Why does Rufus Thibodeaux's credits include Neil Young's album, on which Rufus wasn't actually credited?

    Currently my account login is through Facebook.  I'd like to remove the attachment to Facebook, and just create a login for the AM site.  Is there a way I can do that?

    Sarah Vaughan

    Tom F Gunn · 2 · Last reply by Zac

    I just recently became a fan of Sarah Vaughan. Accordingly I came to AllMusic looking for your choice in her pages under discography/compilations. It is quite a list and I expected to find a release that was your choice. Couldn't find one. Have you not selected one or more of these as your choice? Seems strange given what a great talent and the large number of releases. A selected choice would help anyone who, like me, is or has recently discovered her.

    Best Christmas Albums list/article? Featured lists/articles archive?

    bryan_reynolds · 3 · Last reply by Zac

    Looking for a Best Christmas Albums list or article. Surprised not to see one on the front page for the holiday season.

    I guess in general, is there a way to search for past featured lists and articles? I tried using google targeted search (e.g. [“christmas albums” site:allmusic.com/blog], results were not relevant.

    Neal Morse - Sola Gratia review request

    Marco · 1 · Last reply by Marco

    Hello! I think it would be nice to have a review of the last album by Neal Morse, titled Sola Gratia and published in 2020. Here you can find some info by the record label.

    Also, just another question. I noticed that my correction submissions (even the most simple and source-reliable) have not been considered for months, while previously they received feedback even within a few weeks. In fact, I got many credits from liner notes of my albums that can be added but my contributions are no longer implemented.

    Thank you for your help!

    Question about metadata on song pages

    Christian · 3 · Last reply by Christian

    Hello guys,

    I have a question regarding the song pages. I'm aware that you group the songs ("Performance" in your wording) by title, composers and artists.

    So, when I update, say, a genre on one of your song pages, other song pages with the same song but small differences in the title or different composers are not updated. Of course, it's clear why this happens.

    Now I'm wondering why genres, styles, moods, and themes are exactly the same for "different" songs although my updates are not applied to them.

    Here is an example: (1) https://www.allmusic.com/song/never-get-out-of-these-blues-alive-mt0015185670 (2) https://www.allmusic.com/song/ill-never-get-out-of-these-blues-alive-mt0000160425

    Both are obvious

    Kae/Kate Tempest

    Steffen · 1 · Last reply by Zac

    I was just searching for "Kate Tempest" and did get no search result. To get to the album review I was looking for I tried the album title instead and so found out that she now wants to be referred to as Kae, which I had no knowledge of. With all respect to this personal decision, I think it is kind of irritating that the whole Tempest-entry is wiped clear of the fact that it was formerly Kate. Still all the body of work to this point is actually credited to Kate Tempest, but the reviews deny any such hint.

    Can I voluntarily submit neutral album reviews to AllMusic to have them be approved as AllMusic reviews?

    Ethan S · 1 · Last reply by Zac

    I am a student at the University of Texas and I have a strong passion for, quite literally, all musical genres. I was wondering if I could voluntarily send in researched reviews of my own. Specifically, albums with missing reviews to have them checked and submitted by AllMusic or TiVo. I have used the information from AllMusic's database for many years, and I would be delighted to write actual reviews for people to enjoy.

    'Add to my collection' button

    Would it be possible to add the 'Add to my collection' button to all versions of an album? It would be much more accurate for those of us keeping track. Thanks.

    As Days Get Dark | Carnage

    Matski · 1 · Last reply by Matski

    Are reviews for Arab Strap's As Days Get Dark and/or Nick Cave & Warren Ellis' Carnage in the works? Both were sudden releases, so it's not surprising that they weren't reviewed the week they were released. Still, It would be great to know if either are on the editorial team's docket.
