http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=29573 - http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=29573 This album seems to be a solo effort by Ian McDonald rather than a joint action of the http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=1466 - McDonald & Giles duo though Michael Giles actually appears in the line-up. See e.g.: http://www.cduniverse.com/search/xx/music/pid/5853540/a/Drivers+Eyes.htm - http://www.cduniverse.com/search/xx/music/pid/5853540/a/Drivers+Eyes.htm , http://www.progreviews.com/reviews/display.php?rev=im-de - http://www.progreviews.com/reviews/display.php?rev=im-de , http://www.camino.co.uk/ian/ - http://www.camino.co.uk/ian/ (the label's website, Giles is credited as one of special guests). So, in other words, it should be moved to a separate entry for Ian McDonald.

Actually i do have this CD and it is definitely a McDonald solo album
Yesterday I moved a Jon and Vangelis single that someone had put in Jon's discography. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Snow_Dog" rel="nofollow">

So, the solution is: either Mr. McDonald solo gets a proper evaluation and added (if approved) and the album moved or the album entry deleted.

Either that or we let it slide. Personally...I'm all for accuracy. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Snow_Dog" rel="nofollow">

^ Unfortunately, there is a review. And as we know, when there is a review, it means problems.

^ You mean I can add any album to any discography and when I review it then it's untouchable?

Difficult one. That is the Admin view on duplicates, as you know. For additions that are wrong...for example adding a album by Abba to Queen I suppose it would HAVE to be deleted never mind how many reviews there were. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Snow_Dog" rel="nofollow">

^^ Sort of. I don't like it either and we know that it's possible problem.

Ian, if you know the album would you make a suggestion to include Mr. McDonald on his own to one of the sub-genres and then (if approved) move the entry to his discography? ------------- "Music is much like f**king, but some composers can't climax and others climax too often, leaving themselves and the listener jaded and spent."
