message: I'd say, that Pigbag is ska, and in my expierience, their music is generally considered ska. I can see why someone can hear jazz elements in the music, but the foundation is clearly two-tone ska.
*I'd say it is far more funk than either of those things. I've been gearing up for a rewrite of this article for aaaages, I will look for some sources supporting any of these labels when i do. Jdcooper (talk) 19:36, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd agree and say that they were neither Jazz nor ska, although they had elements of jazz. I have a reference that describes them "Revelling in classic brass-led soul/funk yet retaining a residue of edgy paranioa from The Pop Group". It also mentions Latin influences and "the bass groove/jerky jazz workouts of 'Brian The Snail'". Another source describes 'Brand new Pigbag' as "funk/soul". Let me know if these will be useful if/when you come to work on the article.--Michig (talk) 19:58, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Jazz vs Ska? 

message: It is not altogether clear which of these spellings is correct. Even the fansite, while mostly using 'Hamlyn' notes at one point that it "might be spelt Hamlin". Furthermore, most biographies of the band on the internet seem to be versions of the same text, and its impossible to say a) where the text originated and thus b) whether that text was right. I favour leaving it as 'Hamlyn', since that is how its spelt in the vast majority of places (235 google hits vs. 4 for 'hamlin') though as I said, that's doesn't necessarily entail accuracy.

message: so, there was a claim that Claudia Fragapane used the track:
:British gymnast Claudia Fragapane used a remix for her floor music between 2015-2016 including the 2016 Summer Olympics.Newspaper article (link)
I'd love to have this in - trouble is, I went looking and The Sun - a deprecated source, that shouldn't be used for pretty much anything at Wikipedia - is the only place I can find this claim. It's not in any Reliable Source, it doesn't seem to even be in blogs etc.
and it being listed on Claudia Fragapane without evidence doesn't count as evidence to put it here - in fact, because that's a WP:BLP, technically it should be removed as uncited from there too.
Is there anywhere else, at all, listing this claim? ping  - David Gerard (talk) 10:54, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: The Sun article mentions it in passing - if the Sun wasn't an unusable source, then that'd probably be fine - David Gerard (talk) 13:09, 3 February 2020 (UTC)
