Hi there,
 
Meet The Flower Kings is not the title of this album...
 
http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=7028 - FLOWER KINGS, THE
Meet The Flower Kings
 
It is @Live Recording 2003, as evidenced by the spine references on the CD inlay...
 
 
Cheers,
 
T.Rox

I see what you're saying, but the rest of the world .... even the band's own website .... calls it Meet The Flower Kings  which seems to me to be the most appropriate for us too.

Our entry is very confusing ... I'll tidy it up

Isn't it called "Meet The Flower Kings @ Live Recording 2003" Geek

It would be best to ask a librarian how it would be catalogued presented with this same information... but one of those I am not.
 
TFK's official site may have Meet The Flower Kings as the title, but that appears not to be what it was published as. As can be seen in my original post, the spine has the @Live Recording 2003 reference as the title ... the front of the CD booklet has this same reference at the top of the art work ... and both CD's have @Live Recording 2003 printed on them ... (with Meet The Flower Kings at the bottom of the booklet cover page and in the booklet on Page 5. directly adjacent to @Live Recording 2003 on Page. 4 being the only references to MTFK in the whole CD package)
 
...so I am thinking Meet The Flower Kings has become the colloquial name, perhaps because @Live Recording 2003 is a bit of a mouthful ... but that doesn't make it right!
 
I am happy either way ... I am just in favour of accruacy where possible ... perhaps @Live Recording 2003 (aka Meet The Flower Kings) would be a fitting compromise.
 
Even AMG has MTFK as the title ... but I have been told elsewhere in PA today that AMG cannot be trusted for accuracy Wink
 
Perhaps Inside-Out Records could be canvassed for a point of view?
 
Anyhow, 'nuff said by me on this topic. I will leave all deliberation - if any - to the E&O team.

Quite right ... Clap

I favour Abstrakt's ... Meet The Flower Kings @ Live Recording 2003 ... which seems the neatest way of including both elements
