Again :)

I also have hundreds of such examples.
I'm the one in favor of the cap version, apparently like you.
I'm also the one who struggles against cd covers as discographic
evidences, as this is IMO not the way to proceed for serious
discographers.
And remember MB uses styleguides, and that styleguides go "before" cd covers.

Now, this thread tries to adress the *generic* case, that would give
us a common opinion, usefull also to address:
'S Wonderful
Whatever 'til Whatever
...

Though, of course, Artist Intent can be used in specific cases.


And I still don't see your sig in favor of the cap here:

Sorry for the duplicated explanation, you asked for "again" :D
