Amazing App

If you're a music enthusiast like me, and like getting deep into how your favourite bands created your favourite albums, this is definitely the app for you.

Ne fait pas du tout ce qu’on lui demande

L’application ne trouve que des informations vagues et partielles, et ne fait pas ce qu’on lui demande : trouver la liste des musiciens qui jouent sur chaque titre. Nul!

Response from developer

Pour consulter les crédits d’un morceau spécifique, vous devez accéder au morceau.

OK

No producer or personnel information for albums that I’m looking for. Information seems incomplete.

Music Credits

Best app for music credit lovers!

Disappointing

I was hoping, particularly as my older iPhone is not upgradable to iOS 18, that MusicSmart would give easy access to lists of sidemen, etc. I paid for a month’s access to check out its full capability, and found that, at least within the jazz listings, that very few of them have anything remotely close to a full listing of personnel, which is surprising, because the company says that it uses Discogs as one of its sources, and all of that info is listed there.
