The term Various Artists is used in the record industry when numerous singers and musicians collaborate on a song or collection of songs. Most often on Last.fm, compilation album tracks appear under the name of Various Artists erroneously because the individual artist is not listed in the album's ID3 information.
Compilation albums, for example.

Sometimes, single releases may be credited to Various Artists when their profits are going to charity and, usually in high-profile cases, are sometimes known by a group name. Examples include Band Aid with their releases of Do They Know It's Christmas? and USA for Africa with We Are The World.

Various Artists is also an actual performance name for Torsten Pröfrock, who runs the German DIN label. Torsten performs also as Dynamo, Erosion, Resilent, Traktor besides some others. He's a good friend of Robert Henke and since the Fall of 2004, he is a member of Monolake.

Various Artists was also a short-lived Bristol punk band formed by brothers Jonjo and Robin Key (originally from Birmingham). Other members were also simultaneously in Art Objects who went on to become The Blue Aeroplanes, the latter the Key brothers also co-wrote some songs and were involved in. When Various Artists imploded, the Key brothers went on to form Either / Or.

Various Artists also appear on tracks from musical theater soundtracks, due to the nature of having many cast members on one song, as well as an ensemble in some cases.

Lonely Too Long
Various Artists Lyrics

There were time and you want to be free
My love is growing stronger, as you become a habit to me
Oh I've been loving you a little too long
I dont wanna stop now, oh
With you my life,
Has been so wonderful
I can't stop now

There were times and your love is growing cold
My love is growing stronger as our affair [affair] grows old

I've been loving you a little too long, long,
I don't want to stop now
oh, oh, oh
I've been loving you a little bit too long
I don't wanna stop now
No, no, no

Don't make me stop now
No baby
I'm down on my knees Please, don't make me stop now
I love you, I love you,
I love you with all of my heart
And I can't stop now
Don't make me stop now
Please, please don't make me stop now
Good god almighty I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you
I love you in so many different ways...
I love you in so many different ways....

in 67 I was 17, played drums in a band and had 2 other good friends that also played drums, when we saw Dino Dannelli we went nuts! He was so strong, he sat low, he had those pink champagne Ludwig's with the 24"base, he had sticks flashing all over the place, just Spectacular

@boomerguy9935

You and I are the same age. I saw them when I was 16 in 1966 when they toured with Dick Clark's "Where the Action Is" and then again in 1970. I had started playing drums in 1966 and was in a garage band at the time. I continue to play drums today with my "copper sparkle" Gretsch which are the same color. After high school, I took professional jazz lessons and my playing expanded to jazz, American Standards, Motown, Soft Rock and Classic Rock and always, lower volume with finesse. Nothing against what I played then because if I hadn't gotten the bug - particularly by Dino Danelli - I wouldn't have continued to play.
Rest in peace, Dino. What an inspiration!

The Rascals were a great band that was very successful on both the pop and r&b charts.

Felix should be remembered as one of the best singer/songwriters ever.. sadly he remains underrated.

"A beautiful morning" is still one of my all-time favorites.

One of the truly great American bands of the mid sixties early seventies. Dino Danelli was a tremendous powerhouse drummer. He propelled that band and had mesmerizing technique. Hard to take your eyes off of him when he’d take a solo. May he rest in peace.

If you notice, there is no bass player. The super talented Felix is not only singing the song he wrote but playing the Hammond B-3 organ left and right hand along with the bass pedals with both feet adjusting the volume as well...let me see someone in today's music do half of these things!

This is a great clip. Not only was it truly live and not lip-synced, but the TV director actually knew what he was doing with the shots.

What year was this? I remember them as they were one of my favorite groups! Felix Papalardi (?). This, "Good Lovin", "A Beautiful Morning", "How Can I Be Sure?", "Groovin'", "A Girl Like You", etc.! If it was '67, which I think it was, I was 9 also until Sept.6.!

I fear that it is no longer easy for young people to understand what new and fresh music means, when much of the music they consume is repeated, pre-recorded and canned..., which is why most of today's stars and bands sound very different live compared to its studio recording...

While Buddy Rich was superior in his technical skills, he always sounded like a machine gun to me. I would much rather listen to Dino than Buddy any day. I'm a drummer who started back then and I can see and hear things by other drummers that a lot of people can't. Dino had much more soul than Buddy. I saw Dino and the rest of the band in 1966 and in 1970 and still smile when I think of them.

It's because the Rascals knew how to be entertainers. It was more than just playing your songs then, it was a TV audience and you were expected to not just be an artist, but to entertain. And you can see that they are great at that, getting the audience into it, clapping, and generating enthusiasm. Unlike a lot of today's bands who are the dictionary definitions of poseurs.
