Talk:Grimms
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It's nice that Grimms is an acronym for our favorite six members of the band and that somebody sometime apparently explained that that's where the name came from but, like it or not -- Adrian Henri, Brian Patten, Zoot Money, Michael Giles, & John Megginson -- are also listed in the band on the Help 11 album (which I take it is being shown as "Grimms"), while Roberts & Stanshall are not. Likewise Patten, David Richards, Megginson, Ollie Hadsall, & Gerry Conway are listed in the group on the Rockin' Duck album, while Stanshall again is not. I don't know what was behind those anonymous changes of your member list but I think that dismissing the other band members with that simple, "there could be as many as another six additional members at a performance," is equivalent to listing Pete Best as a Beatle but ignoring Ringo. If you must have your acronymatic list effect, I would suggest that those six members be listed first and set apart from the other members by a blank line, if you wish (even though those six members are mixed in with the others in each [I don't have the 3rd album.] album's members list). I may get around to creating individual pages for the first two Grimms albums but, even then, I would say that that list shouldn't be limited to those six guys, unless YOU can back up your setting them above, all the other Grimms members, with some source making a good case for them NOT all being equal.
