If the original composer is credited, and the unknown person is not being paid {that is actually the main point}, then, in theory, it is ok.

It may or may not be infringement. it sounds as if this muscian made his own recording, in which case the record label has no claim on infringement. Anyone can make a new recording, copycat recordings are 100 percent legal and are called "covers" in the trade.
However whenever a song is performed, there is a royalty due the composer. Generally this is covered by a payment to ASCAP or BMI which have a regular method for assesing internet play of songs. If this was posted on a reputable site, then the performance royalty was probably covered by the ISP.

yes....
it IS infringement...according the majority of the things that have been happening.. any time you publicly display music that you are not the owner of, you Have to have the rights to the music or get permission to do so.
they would have to apply for rights through the publishing company who administers rights to the music. so, the guy above me is right, but there are steps to be taken...
