Dear faithful readers,
Once again, I am reminded that we serve a purpose here at AlbumLinerNotes.com.
Initially, our purpose was simply to archive Liner Notes online so they could be enjoyed by everyone. It soon became clear that a major part of our audience is the visually-impaired. I have received many emails from people that enjoy this site simply because it is readable. Recently, I found a two-disc compilation of Minnie Riperton music called "Petals - The Minnie Riperton Collection". It is a very well put together collection with the exception of the Liner Notes.
I've included an image of what we're up against.
I'm not sure who had the brilliant idea of putting the text over the image of the music but wow - this scan has actually made the image easier to read but there are four pages of this. Who could read this? I have a hard time reading this! I totally understand why I get so many happy emails from the visually-impaired. Our pursuit of 'art' has made so many things totally unusable for some people in our society.
Just another reason why we're here. To make it easier for everyone.
