The next issue is when bands use old photos for CDs, so you can't match

How very true.  In the case of Black Dyke they've been *guilty* of using
pictures dating back to 1991 (maybe even 1990?  with Steven Booth, Ian
Porthouse & Chris Jeans all present) on CD inlays as recent as "The
Planets" from 1997.  However, with a bit of luck that will now change,
since recently they have added a nice group picture to their website (taken
at Durham Cathedral earlier this year).  Hopefully they will adopt this
picture for their next CD ..... which I believe to be Vol.2 of "Essential
Dyke" due out of the Doyen stable quite soon.

But going back to the original posting from Simon Loukas for a minute,  who

I share other people's opinions (so far expressed via this List) that it
would do no harm whatsoever to include ALL participants names on the Player
List ..... thereby giving everyone their due credit, particularly the
players who are not so well known to the brass band audiences at large, who
(IMO) contribute just as much time and effort to the Bands' continued &
marketable success.

Oh well that's my tuppence worth on these two inter-related subjects ......
thanks for listening!
