Actions
Each individual item has access to 3 actions:Resources
- Todo Tango, great archive of info. First resource to find your song info!
- Tango Info, my second stop if TodoTango does not have full info on the song.
- SADAIC, useful if neither of the above have info on the composer/lyricist or year. Bear in mind it is not only for tango lists first the family name and then proper name.
