Look for original authors of songs...

[Rusty K]

Anyone have a link to a resource that will tell me the original authors of classic rock n roll songs?

Here is a link to the APRA site run by The Australasian Performing Right Association (I am a member). There is a works search in the top left corner.

Even though it is an Australian site it lists works from all over the world for copyright information.

Cheers
Alan.

Thanks much....

Well, couldn't you just do a wikipedia search? Most album/song pages on wikipedia lists the composers/songwriters for each song.

I haven't used wiki very much...didn't know that kind of info would be there. I'll use it to double check what I find at the Aussie link.

Thanks

Also, AMG (allmusicguide.com) will tell you that info.
