Missing bio for original composers/lyricists

Musicology - history/appreciation?

To Pandora:  I listening to many of your tracks, often with a classical bent, we are frustrated with the sheer absence of any background info on the original composer/lyricist.  5he only info provided is on the current artist playing/singing the music.  So, we have to separately Google who was the ORIGINAL source of the music?  Why is not Pandora a source for this basic, musicology information??

@swenswede46 Can you please give me an example of a composer who is missing background info on their artist page?

Thanks for working with me on this.

To Pandora Re: Composer Credits?

Piano Guys Radio: Dallas String Quartet playing "Yesterday" with no
mention of composer Paul McCartney. Brooklyn Duo playing "Sound of
Silence" composed by Simon & Garfunkel. Just two examples.

So, if you want to learn more about a piece, all you get is info about the
specific artist singing or playing their version -- NOT the original
composer(s). Have to Google it. Seems odd to me, plus no proper credit
given to original composers.
