Here's another weird one: the playlist indicates that Mungo Jerry's "In The Summertime" is a re-recording, but it's the original version that actually plays.

Regardless, I have put another copy of the song into the wrong versions playlist, which both plays the correct version, and does not label it as a re-recording.

This and the "Strange Fruit" situation have me thinking there could be problems on Spotify's end that complicate the entire process.

Oh wait, your playlists includes the new suggestions, not the broken/wrong versions.

This is great, but may I ask for another list with all the broken and wrong versions, for an easy comparison?

Or maybe your lists include the wrong versions after all. Sometimes they seem right, sometimes wrong. I think we have several cases like ”Strange Fruit”. This is very confusing...

I don't think I follow you. In one playlist I put all the songs that are present in a wrong version, and in the other playlist I put all the available songs that are currently blanked altogether on the official playlist.

But I'm happy to organize these any way you wish, I think I just don't understand the difference.

So you can’t play any of the tracks in your ”Broken” playlist? If that’s the case, I would appreciate a lot if you could also make a ”mirror” playlist of tracks you can play, i.e. the tracks you suggest instead.

OK, I think I see a little better the miscommunication.

In my broken playlist are working copies of songs that appear broken in the official playlist.

Do you want a playlist that's literally consisting of the broken songs?

Yes, and if it’s not too much work a list of the wrong version tracks as well. Would that be ok?

My interpretation was of one playlist for songs that would be replacing songs that currently play, but in a wrong version, and another playlist of songs that can replace entries which don't play at all.

I'll try to have this organized in the way you suggest before I've reached 3,000. Do you mean a typed list as well? I don't mind at all.

In the Broken playlist, I can play all songs except ”Genius of Love” and ”The Wind”. How about these instead?

The song page for Wings' "Mull of Kintyre" links to a wrong version. This is the correct version:

Each of those is unplayable for me. Here's another for Genius Of Love that may work for us both: https://open.spotify.com/track/0tO4IdQqxUSyQF3t1oUA8l. I can't find another copy of "The Wind".

The playlists are now updated through 5,000. I'm going to take a break from the playlist for a while, but I hope this has been helpful. Let me know if I can do anything to present the information better!

If anyone's interested, these are the biggest omissions remaining on Spotify according to AM's top 5000 songs:

Jay-Z (11 songs)
Peter Gabriel (6 songs)
De La Soul (5 songs)
Beyonce (4 songs)
King Crimson (4 songs)
Dr. Dre (3 songs)
Aaliyah (3 songs)
Slade (3 songs)
Joanna Newsom (3 songs)
Ray Charles (2 songs)
Freda Payne (2 songs)
The Go-Betweens (2 songs)
Spacemen 3 (2 songs)
Blawan (2 songs)

Keep an eye out for these additions!

In this region it is mixed. The albums by Gastr del Sol, Ty Segall (all of them, not just Goodbye Bread), Six Organs of Admittance and Royal Trux are there, but Silver Jews, Smog, Bill Callahan and also Joanna Newsom are not available.
But great news in general!

Re: Albums and Songs Recently Added to Spotify

Shaun, I have finally checked your playlists. While most songs sound great, there are some songs where I question the version and some that I can't play at all. I have made two playlists, "AM Wrong for Henrik" with comments and "AM Available for Henrik" where I hope that you will be able to find something that plays correctly for you as well.



Comments:
Billie Holiday | Strange Fruit
I get the "Lady Sings the Blues" version. We have talked about this mysterious problem already.

Muddy Waters | Mannish Boy
I don't think "The Real Folk Blues" recording is the original either, although it sounds very close.

James Brown & The Famous Flames | Please, Please, Please - Single Version
I get redirected to a live version.

Wings | Live And Let Die
I get redirected to a live version.

KISS | Rock And Roll All Nite
You think the "Alive!" version should be used instead of the original studio recording, that was also the initial single release? I think probably not, even if the live version became a bigger Billboard hit.

Charley Patton | Pony Blues
Maybe the original, but barely listenable recording.

Goldie | Inner City Life - Baby Boy's Edit
This is not a version I'm familiar with.

Seal | Killer - Single Version
This is Seal's re-recording from 1991. I think the critics are usually referring to Adamski's version from 1990 (also featuring Seal).

Sex Pistols | My Way
Seems to be a demo version or something.

Irene Cara | Flashdance… What A Feeling
A re-recording. However, I can't find another link to the original version than the one that was unplayable for you.

William DeVaughn | Be Thankful for What You've Got
Some rerecording. Again, I can't find another link to the original version and this is so different that I will go with the original even if it doesn't play for you.

Miguel Rios | Bienvenidos
I get a different live version. The one I had seems to be the original live recording (from "Rock & Rios").

León Gieco | Sólo Le Pido a Dios
Re-recording. I have found the original.



"Speed King" to "Genius of Love" are songs where I couldn't play your song.

Hello Henrik,

It's excellent news that most of the tracks made an improvement. I'll be diligent with the playlists you've shared here over the next two days and return with any additional findings. In those cases where it still can't be reconciled, your preference will of course be the best one.

Thank you as always!

Hi.

I noticed on the Spotify Top 10,000 Songs playlist, that Please Please Please by James Brown is a live version. The following is the original version:

https://open.spotify.com/album/4XX8CYb3pmdYGsNP3XtnhB


Also, the link is broken for It Hurts To Be In Love by Gene Pitney on the playlist. The following works for me:

https://open.spotify.com/album/3uQ4HJSTI6bxOEQTIZq8Uf
