YesY Cover art in the infobox
YesY A lead section giving an overview of the album

  • At least one section of informative prose other than lead (Necessary for "B" class)
  • A track listing (for "start" class), containing track lengths & composers (for "B" class)
  • A list of personnel (specific band members (for "start" class), guest musicians and technical (for "B" class)

YesY Categorisation at least by artist and year

For what it's worth, I think AllMusic said that the two albums from which this was drawn were self-produced, cassette-only releases. Not absolutely certain, and they have gotten things wrong before (noticably, track titles).  — AnnaKucsma   (Talk to me!) 15:26, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

They were definitely cassette only. The cassettes indicate that they were manufactured by "Astro Custom Records" in West Hill, Ontario. Also, despite what some sources seem to indicate, A Compilation does not include everything on the original cassettes. Everything from 4 On The Floor is included, but three tracks from Road To The Isle were omitted. Dsreyn 21:48, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reassessment

While the article is on its way, it needs personnel information on performers at least to rate as "start". See the assessment box above for specific information. :) --Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:44, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
