Where/how do
you get this Original Date data for
your tracks??
You can laugh: Google, Wikipedia, Discogs, etc.
I use "original date" primarily to mark cover versions of songs, then store the original date and artist. If I think I recognize a song as a cover version, I feed the mentioned search engines and then enter the information manually.
I try to avoid compilations, best-of albums, etc, where the original and publication date do not match.
