Actually, I was pointing out that DATE should probably *not* be 
restricted to ISO format.

I don't think so.

Yes.  Sometimes the TITLE contains the track description; popular music 
would generally work this way.  With the previously mentioned Don 
Giovanni example, TITLE would be "Don Giovanni" and PART would have the 
individual track descriptions.  I admit, though, I needed Jonathan's 
help to work this out.  :)
