‘14 Years Ago’ – Readers’ Comments…by Rob Howard |
 David Kemp, from Birmingham, UK, suggested that Accordions Worldwide publish a readers’ comments section, and this request appeared in the news for the week ending April 11th 1997. For the next few years there was such a section. After a period with no readers comment, the new "Help Desk, Information needed, Readers Comments" which people can put online themselves was instigated.LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Subject: The Squeeze Editor, I started reading your excellent on line magazine after reading about it in the Accordion News, here in the UK, published by the sadly missed Malcolm Gee (picture left). I must say how much I enjoy reading "The Squeeze" even though most of the articles are not local. One thing I do feel you could possibly benefit from is to have a readers 'letters page'. One of the areas I always enjoy reading in a paper based magazine is the letters page. In your last editorial you say that you welcome e-mail from on line accordionists. How about sharing them with the rest of us. Anyhow, thanks for a great service. It's good to know there is someone out there pulling accordionists world-wide together ! David Kemp Birmingham, England Thanks for the nice comments. Firstly, I know we don't have much news come in from the UK, which is very disappointing. We are going to contact the NAO (National Accordion Organisation of the United Kingdom) and ask them to send us news. Your idea of having a letters page was extremely well received. We will put this at the bottom of the news each week, along with my editors note and will have a link to it from the top of the page. Thanks again. Your input is much appreciated! |
