Why standalone recordings are ingored in LB?

yes, video recordings and audio recordings should be two seperate things, as well as say, a YouTube video and an audio release (might not apply in these cases, but for future)

I believe the general practice has moved towards giving these releases instead of just standalone recordings, especially as they become more common (and in some cases, the only releases by an artist)

some examples might help. (note, there’s currently no consensus for release group type, some that editors use are single and other, I’m leaving them unspecified for now. either way, they’re almost certainly official)

these are also good examples of linking the videos to the audio recordings (which if they didn’t get released, they could be added as standalone recordings) and also works, like for A New Start here
