Dear friends,
Wouldn't it be a great thing to have a new category in this site in which anyone could contribute to the establishment of our beloved roots albums' lyrics ?
I think it is a must and a great opportunity regarding the knowledge that can be found in such a forum.
GIve your opinion and please moderators, give your point of view too.
Thanks and respect
Ben

True, but this would not be a problem if the site is well done. For example you could have "darko's proposal" or "benjamin's proposal" with underlined lines when not sure of the lyrics. Just as we do on the forum any time we exchange lyrics (cf Walls of Jerusalem" topic).
This would be evolutive and participative. And I don't think it would be over complicated to do for the roots archives webmaster. A simple link on the songs' title to a lyrics page containing different proposals and a space to enter your own proposal. A great new way for users to enrich this site. (because it is becoming harder and harder to contribute to the albums' listing !..)

I'd definitely like to see a lyrics category on this site. A lot of the time in my experience it's impossible to find lyrics to many roots songs, except (understandably) those which have some 'mainstream visibility'. A thought, though - roots lyrics can sometimes espouse some controversial messages...
