Question For Penguin Discog: How to credit FM (& members?) for album production

Here's another question for you guys, might seem obvious again but wanted to bounce it off you so the majority can get it the way they want it. Same rules as before etc.

Naturally, some albums have more than just the band as producer & they will be included as well but when it comes to an album "Produced by Fleetwood Mac" (whether it be alone or with other producers) we will have the band credited as producer just as credited on the albums/how it can best fit the database but for specific artist's historical records, do you want the FM members also credited as producers on the album so they will display when you go to each FM member's separate discogs?

If not, choose option 1.

If so, choose either option 2 or 3. There are 2 choices between these:

1. They can be credited individually, so the album displays in the list when you're on a FM member's solo discog page & click on "Solo audios" & choose "Production roles" from the drop down choices. Or,...

2. They can be credited as band members. This way, it will not show up in the above said section but will show up if you went to "Fleetwod Mac Audios" & choose "Production roles" from the drop down choices instead.

Same would apply for any other band production roles too (i.e. cover concept, etc.) except songwriting since in many cases there's no way to determine if someone was actually a member of the band at the time of writing a particular song. Might be easier in some cases but again to treat everything consistently, we should probably just keep those separate (unless the masses disagree). Naturally the likes of LB producing a Walter Egan album don't apply, those would be solo production credits.

Again, just didn't want to assume what you thought was best. Regarding the last 2, it could be argued that it's good to have the band separation option available but some may find it too separate & many may question "why (such & such) isn't there" (when it IS there, but under a diferent section).

So, looking forward to the votes & thanks again in advance.

John
