   1a - Done.
1b - The error was on "Vital", not "The Quiet Zone / The Pleasure Dome"
1c - I've added a note to that effect in the Releases Information.

2 - Done.

3a - Done.
3b - According to the inside gatefold Nick Potter played bass and guitar, so I've added guitar. The instruments are slightly different according to the gatefold, so I've updated them according to what the album says:

4a - Done.
4b - I'll leave it as it is - see the back cover of the album here which shows the band line-up on the LHS as if to exclude Potter:

but I've fixed a couple of other things you did not mention but are shown on the back cover of the album.

Thanks, Fassbinder.

	Here I have some words about the Van der Graaf Generator information. 1. The Quiet Zone / The Pleasure Dome a) the name of the bassist is written: Nick Poter; should be: Nick Potter b) in the line-up written: Graham Smith: Violin; should be: Graham Smith / violin c) an actual name of the band at that time was Van der Graaf (without the word "Generator"). So, maybe it is possible somehow to point it out in the information. For example, to write the name of the album: The Quiet Zone / The Pleasure Dome (Van der Graaf). What is your opinion? 2. Vital The same as in 1a -- Poter instead of the right Potter. 3. The Least We Can Do... a) In the information about the length of the song Out of my Book there is a redundant square bracket at the right. b) In "White Hammer" Nick Potter plays guitar, doesn't he? If he does, guitar should be added as his instrument. 4. H to He... a) In both two parts of the song "The Emperor..." there is the name "Hammill" in the brackets. I think it should be moved. b) Nick Potter is stated as a guest (with Robert Fripp). I don't know whether he was considered a member of the band at the release time, but at the time of the recording he surely was. What do you think about it?
