Ken Dryden Posted June 22, 2021 Report Share Posted June 22, 2021 Since ASCAP and BMI revamped their web search engines, they no longer seem as thorough as in the past. Given that the data is either incorrect or incomplete on so many releases, what are some reliable alternatives when trying to verify song titles, composers or lyricists? An example, I found this listing on a Cory Weeds CD I was playing today: Nancy With A Laughing Face, credited to Jimmy Van Heusen and Johnny Burke Someone obviously didn't do any research...

Chuck Nessa Posted June 22, 2021 Report Share Posted June 22, 2021 (edited) I used to use HFA Songfile but it seems they have revamped as well. A Library of Congress copyright search should help. Edited June 22, 2021 by Chuck Nessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
