We make it that this page will be the 4000th page posted on this website since this particular version of Organ landed here somewhere in November 2012. Organ has been around a lot longer than that of course, it all started as a very handmade handprinted fanzine back in late 1986, which means there will be a 40th birthday to celebrate at the end of the year. In between the handmade handprinted fanzine days and the website you find now, there was a more almost ‘professional’ zine that eventually evolved into a very glossy magazine and soemthing you could buy in shops in New York rather than just as gigs in London, you know the history, if not then here (some of) it is, we just felt like marking the 4000th page today (that is a hell of a lot of news, reviews, features and lots more besides)
We did, at the start of the year, last week now, post out best of lists, unlike msot we did actually wait until the year had properly ended, did you have a look? Those end of year list will tell you more about where Organ is at there days than most things will..

A.I tells us 4000 is the number “four thousand,” a natural number after 3999 and before 4001, often seen in scientific notation as (4\times 10^{3}) and written in Roman numerals as I̅V̅ (IV with a vinculum). It can represent years (e.g., 4000 BCE, A.D. 4000), products (like the Audi 4000), celestial bodies (asteroid 4000 Hipparchus), or even currency conversions, like approximately 3,482.60 GBP for 4000 EUR
