# Talk:Blood & Chocolate

What is the significance of the cover art and who is the artist? Adrianjwilson (talk) 19:37, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

The original cassette release of Blood and Chocolate was a parody of the then current version of Cadbury's (as they were then known) Bournville dark chocolate, with Costello's name written in the Cadbury's style logo.  Notice the overall colour of the revised packaging is very similar, with dark red background and gold lettering.  Naturally, Cadbury's objected to the design and it was hastily withdrawn.

Hi, I'd be happy to review this! I'm still pretty new to doing reviews so please bear with me but I intend on following the guidelines to the best of my understanding – so hopefully there are no issues. Elephantranges (talk) 23:04, 30 December 2024 (UTC)

### Comments
Alright, looking at the prose everything looks good. Only suggestion I would make is when stating in the lead that "The Pogues' bassist Cait O'Riordan guested on multiple tracks", maybe point out that she's guesting on backing vocals but not bass. First time I read this through I got the impression that she was playing some of the bass on this album in place of Bruce (which wouldn't be surprising, considering his and EC's strained relationship). But yeah, everything looks good here; I mean you clearly know what you're doing at this point, lol. Elephantranges (talk) 23:40, 30 December 2024 (UTC)

Apologies for the delay, been very busy this week. Looked through and didn't see anything that was an issue. Passed! Elephantranges (talk) 02:22, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
