Yeah, I'm pretty certain the classic albums feature can work - basically at the meetings I'll probably just throw it open to whoever suggests a decent album. What do you mean by 'Where To Start with...' though? Like a guide to a bunch of albums by an artist? I think Mojo do that (they did one on SY once I seem to recall). If that's what you mean it's a good call - I might try developing that. The problem would be space - it'd be like 500 words minimum to be deep enough, right? I'd probably need to expand the section for that, which is risky because if I ask for more pages for the section and wind up not being able to fill them some issues, I *will* get verbally raped. And probably fired.
I was thinking for next issue maybe a feature on feminism through the ages in rock - I've been listening to Bush Tetras and Au Pairs a lot recently and I think it could make an interesting read.

A. Who the hell are you?! Did you introduce yourself on the other thread?
B. What would be the point in that? I'm here to tax ideas from people since I figure people on an SY board probably read loads of music rags and I want to hear what they think worked in other papers. Criiipes...
