I'd like to make a suggestion here, to ensure everyone gets albums listened to during "their" week. If you review an album by an artiste you're not particularly fond of, but do it anyway, then the person you do it for owes you, ie when it's "your " week they're expected to step up and help you out.

So in other words, let's say Chula does Beefheart but doesn't really want to, when he has his (say) Led Zep week, Frown (as this is basically his week even though I organised it; we all know who's the real Beefheart fan here) is obligated to listen to one, even if he doesn't like Zep. Or Rush. Or whoever.

Nobody HAS to of course; it's more a favour-being-paid-back sort of gentleman's agreement thing. I just think it would help when someone chooses an artiste not too many people are fond of, and not leave them looking for reviewers. They could "call in their markers", so to speak. No?
