https://musicbrainz.org/release/40bcb8cb-dac9-4561-9b59-2e6ee26a180a is currently the only release in its release group, and it seems to have conflicting info from what should be different releases. E.g., it has a barcode of 5991811225629 but the cover art doesn’t show any barcode. It also has the label Hungaroton Classic - MusicBrainz (which matches https://www.discogs.com/release/28462651-Puccini-Veronika-Kincses-Peter-Dvorský-Lajos-Miller-Klára-Takács-Giuseppe-Patané-Madama-Butterfl) instead of Hungaroton - MusicBrainz (which matches the cover art). And the release year doesn’t match either release on Discogs. The barcode that doesn’t match the cover art comes from Edit #9469757 - MusicBrainz around when the release was first added, and the cover art was imported from Discogs much more recently.
This should be split into two releases, right? And there’s no way to split a release directly other than adding a separate one and editing them to be different?
Normally I’d try to keep the current MBID with whatever release was intended when it was first added, but this was added before NGS, so I don’t know if that makes sense here. It looks like most of the early info that conflicts with the cover art was just a release event imported from websites rather than from the physical release that was added, so I’m not sure that matters for which release keeps the original MBID. On the other hand, is there any way to move cover art from one release to another? If not, it would be easier to keep the MBID for the release that matches the cover art.
CC @chabreyflint who added the cover art. I didn’t see Discourse users for the editors who added the release or the release event initially.
