one of the problems with the site at the moment is that the scoring for artists is grouped at the parent artist level, and the current system can't handle instances where there are two or more separate artists contributing to the same album.

A separate problem is making sure artists are connected to all of their work, and get credit wherever they appear (where it's more than a cursory appearance). I'm trying to think how best this could work. The Paul McCartney and Wings thread kick-started this, but there are also many others where this is a problem.

Oh alright, that makes sense then. I wasn't aware that Crazy Horse put stuff out on their own... is it worth checking out?

I agree this needs sorting out so that each constituent act can get credit where an album is contributed by multiple artists, but the current system can't handle this and is something on the 'to do' list to put right very shortly. The problem with this particular instance is that Crazy Horse released albums of their own, so it wouldn't be logically right to make them a child act of Neil Young.

Can you make Neil Young the parent act of Neil Young and Crazy Horse? I think that would make more sense so that all of Neil's music can be seen concisely under one page.
