The new GH cover image is like the CD booklet (well, as close as a scan gets), and a cleaner image.  The older cover image has the colors much more saturated and bright, the resolution is less and it has compression artifacts.  The older image is from GH's site, so I guess it has some validity.  The decision is yours -- I won't be offended if you use the older image...

Just added the Cleopatra score to The Entourage Music And Theater Ensemble
 
Anyway, the image went completely wrong! Could one of you kind collabs replace with this please, which is the only suitable image I can find:
 
 
Also I've added this to studio albums. This wasn't a mistake, but may be wrong. This "album" was a music score for theatre, but never as I understand formally released as an album. It is available as a download off the official web-site. Is it ok where it is? Not sure where else it could go!
Thanks.

Which image is the right? And where's the info about the new album? I couldn't find it anywhere in their myspace not even on their oficial website Smile

He shouldn't have posted twice it makes it harder for us.

Hi, I added the following band last night:

http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=6879

I got the album cover pictures from their official website, but the pic for their new album is too small. Unfortunately it's a new release so it's showing up on the front page. My computer has serious problems dealing with Myspace so I can't post any links to pics from there (I can't seem to view 'properties' of the pics.) I'd be grateful if one of the chaps from the E&O Team or an Admin would help. Sorry for the hassle, and many thanks guys! Smile

Hey Snowie,
I think the Aquarium photo should be changed to just a picture of BG. It's always been his band with the rest of the lineup constantly changing. He is the author of all the music, actually a couple of Aquarium albums were originally credited to him solo.

Good argument, but we can't have an single photo for a band. I am not familiar with this band, but from a look at their covers, all these albums are credited to Аквариум - Akvarium (literal transcription). If we were to change name of the band to Boris Grebenshchikov, it would be a different story, but as it is now.

I suggest to you, as you seem to be familiar with the band (at least more than I am) to find a photo with most stable line-up, the long lasting members or simple line-up with "the best" albums.

There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless,"

Russian Album and Lilith are credited to BG solo (but appear in the official Aquarium discography).
Their official site is www.aquarium.ru so that's how we spelled it when we were adding them.
I'm very closely familiar with the band and I assure you it does make sense. Aquarium is a BG project, rather than a proper band. For example, Nine Inch Nails has a single person's picture because it's Trent Reznor's project, and the rest of the lineup varies. Gandalf and Krobak are also examples of this.
You can ask snobb to confirm, I think he's the only other person on PA who is familiar with themLOL
