Legal Question in Entertainment Law in Missouri

I am a musician and I am currently in the middle of recording an album. My question is "Do you recommend copyrighting a version of a song that is not mixed or mastered. And If I so, should I re-copyright the song once it is mixed and mastered?"

YES & YES! You mean"Should I register my copyright". You ALREADY HAVE a copyright automatically. You should register in both situations. Registration is cheap and easy and confers valuable rights. Have an attorney prepare the first one so it is done quickly and right. Watch what is done and insist on a copy of all papers. Then you can do them from then on. Do it online as that is cheaper and better and uses a single form and has built on error checking.
