I like the line "All I wanted to do was post a song!" :) Sad in this
world of less than original people that one has to protect themsleves at
the cost of sharing something good and fun in the simplest way available
today!
BTW, just checked your Website.....As a young inspired guitfiddler in
Australia, playing in a country rock band (my first band) and beleive
me, there was no such thing as "Country rock" (Amazing Rythym Aces and
Pure Prarie Legue somewhat lost on our audiences) as such then in Aus,
we covered a tune by Rodney Crowell called "Stars on the Water"...a
simple but catchy little tune (I still play it today)...and I remembered
thinking...who the heck plays that solo...it seemed relatively easy to
play. That is untill I tried to pick up all those little inflections and
the super clear voicing of bending notes. I looked at the back of the
album to see and behold, Mr. Albert Lee! An English Country picker no
less!!! :) I then watched one of those Videos he had showing how to
play on that beat up ol' tele he has with a million signatures on it.
That RH finger style coupled with a pick had me just baffled back then.
I use it in a round about way today. He is truly one of my guitfiddler
gods! :)

Ah ha! I finally got it. In order to label it this way I had to
force the use of id3v2 for mp3 (it's much easier in ogg). Since I'm
using lame to encode I had to use the id3v2 options. I have replaced
the file with one that is labeled (hopefully) correctly. All this legal
stuff is really strange - all I wanted to do was post a song ;-) Oh
well, you live and learn. BTW, even though I couldn't use the stuff on
the above pages, the links were invaluable. Thanks Conrad.
Speaking of which, how could I mark the song
as licensed under
Creative Commons non-commercial/attribution license. I have no idea how
to place that in the id3 tag or anywhere else.
Creative Commons have the basic info about this here:

Some tools for manipulating ID3 tags are listed on freshmeat:
