Talk:Alabama (band)

message: While Billboard magazine claims Alabama had only 33 No. 1 hits
I don't think the word "only" applies when it's used in conjunction with "33 No. 1 hits"!
: History shows that anonymous user 68.221.48.27 posted the comment at 00:22, 17 June 2006. Please sign your comments with four tildes (~). Now, I think the reason the above phrase was so stated is because there seems to be a dispute over how many No. 1 hits Alabama had. Some sources state the number as high as 41 — as per the For the Record album, which contains 41 songs that went to No. 1 on the various charts, including the 33 that went the distance on Billboard and eight others that didn't on that chart but were said to on various other charts, such as Radio and Records.

message: I know this would be a good project for someone like myself to cover, but isn't it time someone created separate album pages for each of Alabama's albums? Just like the other album pages, these pages would need to include track listings and album images. [[Briguy52748 23:14, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, I guess I got left with the ball in my lap, so I've gone ahead and created album pages. I've also uploaded album covers for each of their studio, greatest hits and live albums. To this point, articles have been created for Alabama's first studio album for RCA, their first Christmas album, their three greatest hits packages and The Essential (the reissued For the Record). A separate page for the band's discography is forthcoming when I have time, but this is where it stands right now. [[Briguy52748 22:23, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

text: I also am working on the individual Album pages, i have created one for Feels So Right, The Closer You Get..., Roll On, 40-Hour Week, The Touch, and have added the cover art to My Home's in Alabama. --Hman333 (talk) 21:52, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

message: I have to ask, but what "weasel words" are in the Alabama article?  This should be the least controversal article around.  Can someone provide examples or should this tag be removed? Hooper (talk) 18:01, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

message: Many of the chart positions listed in the decade-album breakdowns of the main entry are either wrong or bogus.  As a result, I have removed any mention of single chart positions in this section.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Taylorax (talk • contribs) 04:15, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

message: The opening summary is HORRIBLE! I don't know enough about the band to feel comfortable modifying it, but someone should.
For example, this is the THIRD thing mentioned about the band:
"In 1973, after Owen's graduation from Jacksonville State University, they gave up their day jobs and weekend gigs."
The article hasn't even mentioned what they're famous for yet! What popular/important songs/albums/etc have they done?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.36.74.70 (talk) 12:15, 9 June 2012 (UTC)

message: Per WP:DAB and WP:NCM  this article should be at Alabama (American band), but there's a good case for WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT that Alabama (band) should point here rather than the dab page. The Canadian band being much less well known. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:34, 3 August 2017 (UTC)

message: I’m pretty sure even though Alabama had influence from pop music, they aren’t pop country. Their neotraditonal style shines far brighter than their pop side. “Love in the First Degree” and songs like it may seem pop at first, but dig deeper in and you’ll see it sounds just like something Waylon Jennings and Jessi Colter would sing.
