Colosseum's  'Grass Is Greener' album should be put in their discography list on a third position (after 'Valentyne Suite') and with the 1970 as the year of release.

I've changed the date, but cannot change the order. I'll PM mailto:M@X - M@X to fix that.

Thanks, bsurmano.

As the one who introduced this particular album I can definitely tell you this says 1969 on the album as the release year, but I agree that it should be in third position after FTWAATD and TVS

There are some problems in the line-up of otheralbums and I will PM about this

on the Valentyne Suite album,

the line-up is written as such

- Dave Greenslade / Organ, Vocals >> OK
- Dick Heckstall-Smith / Sax  >> OK
- John Hiseman / Drums  >> OK
- Tony Reeves / bass  >> OK
- James Litherland / guitar, vocals  >> OK
- Jim Roche / guitar >>> an original member but never managed it on a recording session
- Mark Clarke / bass, vocals >> does not come in until the DOT album, and only on three tracks
- Dave Clempson / guitar, vocals >> on Grass Is Greener but not on TVS
- Chris Farlowe / vocals >> does not come in until the DOT album

Regarding ''Grass is Greener'' , I found for this album, on Dunhill official discography list , as the year of release to be 1970 ;  however, I agree that positioning here is more important. 

I possess ''Valentyne Suite'' LP issued on Bronze records, which means second UK pressing from the year 1972 (the first one was on Vertigo 'spiral' from 1969) on which there is no usual listing of performers (musician+instrument) , but only Jon Hiseman's slereve notes describing each track.According to this, the line-up is : Dave Greenslade,Dick Heckstall-Smith,James Litherland,Tony Reeves and Jon Hiseman.
