Reading this thread has reminded me that similar ethics come into play regarding recordings of risque material. I am now worried about the fact that all my field recordings from the 60s/70s are now online at the BLSA site and I've just remembered that a few contain such material, with named singers.

Having said that, I do agree with Jim regarding sensitive material. On the YG site we were going to include a song by a young Yorkshire singer who died recently, along with a published article about his life and songs. In keeping with our policy we consulted his family first and we were informed that his brothers would be upset if reference was made to the site at any time. Needless to say we immediately dropped the idea.
