Subtracted this, as it can't be considered a professional review, even if it may be useful.  Can't find another review by this writer on this or any other website.  Sorry.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kooosh (talk • contribs) 09:05, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Review 

message: I don't see any song-writing credits in the album's liner notes.  While it seems safe to assume the songs were written by Hollis & Friese-Greene as with Spirit of Eden,  states only "After the Flood" was cowritten and the rest are by Hollis alone.  Can anyone find another source out there?Ulmanor (talk) 22:14, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: BMI Records confirms "Ascension Day" as being by Hollis/Friese-Greene. Inexplicably, none of the other five songs are listed there.--Martin IIIa (talk) 23:05, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

text: On Discogs some pictures of the vinyls show "All compositions Mark Hollis & Tim Friese-Greene".  74.105.20.197 (talk) 22:33, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

message: I see this had been rated as B-class since 2007. I've reassessed it as Start class, since it's a long way from B. Thanks. — sparklism  hey! 21:30, 6 December 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: A previous version of the article used a discussion forum (here) as a source, to support that the extra "four-second fragment" was available on the US version but not the UK version. This will need a more reliable source, but I included the forum link here in case it helps editors track down more relevant sources. Ackatsis (talk) 22:59, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
thread_title: 4-second fragment on US version

message: The text "Variophon" links to the Russian synthesizer  Variaphone  when it should link to the German synthesizer Variophon, which are quite different.

thread_title:  Wrong Link

message: I've proposed moving this article to Laughing Stock, as the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC with that title. Accordingly, I've also requested moving the current disambiguation page, Laughing stock, to Laughing stock (disambiguation). See Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests#Uncontroversial technical requests. I think this is a sensible move, since Talk Talk's Laughing Stock is the only thing with that title that has its own article, and the other things listed at the disambiguation page—all songs—are not as notable as this album. —BLZ · talk 05:10, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Proposed move: [[Laughing Stock (album)]] → [[Laughing Stock]] 

message: There's a good quote by Friese-Greene about it in this article: https://reverb.com/news/a-quiet-genius-mark-hollis-and-talk-talks-experimental-masterpieces
I don't want to mess with the structure of this article too much, so I hope somebody else can find a sensible spot to work that in. Since this part has often been mistaken for a guitar solo, I think it would be a good addition. Jules TH 16 (talk) 08:19, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
