I have a doubt regarding this release:
according to the back: https://coverartarchive.org/release/aa293a03-f2d2-40a8-9302-c8d4ab0caa0e/45852058515.jpg
Shouldn’t the tracklist be:
Option A
1 - Scene One: Regression
Part of: Act I
2 - Scene Two: I. Overture 1928
Part of: Act I
3 - Scene Two: II. Strange Deja Vu
Part of: Act I
Option B (I don’t know if this can be done)
1 - Regression
Part of: Act I
Part of: Scene One
2 - I. Overture 1928
Part of: Act I
Part of: Scene Two
3 - II. Strange Deja Vu
Part of: Act I
Part of: Scene Two
What’s the point of adding the album name as “Part of”?
Thanks!!!
This “Part of” text in the credits is generated from relationships between the works linked to the recordings.
It would seem better to me to have more levels to the works here: if I was adding everything for the first time I might have gone for one work for each Act and one work for each scene (with the part of relationship) and then additional works for those scenes with two songs. E.g. Scene One: Regression is Part of Act I (two works), while Overture 1928 is part of Scene Two is part of Act I (three works). But there are lots of ways of doing it that might be reasonable.
Comparing to other releases it looks like it only displays one work level up in the credits, so if it was like in my previous paragraph then track 1 would display Part of: Act I, while track 2 would display Part of: Act I: Scene Two… which isn’t perfect really. (But neither is having two works linked by “part of” when the top one only has one part, since that just means they are the same work!)
