Talk:A Pillow of Winds

message: What source is referred to in the phrase "a chord named 'G#m/E'..."? It sounds as if some published songbook might be the source...but people need to realize that such songbooks do NOT come from the band but instead are someone's interpretations of the recording.
I will also note that, to an extent, the name of a chord is inherent in the chord. That is, if a recording sounds a G#, B, and D# above an E bass, it just IS an E major-7th chord. No source is needed. Those notes, in that combination, are what that chord IS.
Commercial songbooks are not authorities.

Talk:Standing-room only

message: I found this very strange reading and assume it's written from a US perspective. I first assumed that it refers to evetns with only standing room, the kind I prefer. But it seems to be written from the perspective that seats are the standard and standing room is an added option. In Europe for most events that is the only way around. There is also the suggestion that this refers mainly to sporting events. Is that where the term comes from? And is it a US term? Also, if it's about events where there are seats, why is it called 'standing room only'? DirkvdM 16:57, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Again (1949 song)

I just stumbled upon a 1949 live duet version by Bing Crosby and Peggy Lee from the Bing Crosby Show on October 12, 1949, 2015 uploaded by YouTube user Croonr1, who mentions an AP / Orchard Music album release of the audio take (The Best of Bing & Peggy), like YouTube user MegaJacKapp already does along with his 2013 upload. Only, I failed trying to verify this via discogs.com where I could not manage to find an album entry with that precise title.

message: MPEG-2 should be listed as a container format (general). Given the ambiguity with MPEG-2 as an encoding standard (it's both, see MPEG-2 from which the quote below comes), I suggest adding two entries MPEG-TS and MPEG-PS to the table. 
MPEG-2 includes a Systems part (part 1) that defines two distinct (but related) container formats. One is Transport Stream, which is designed to carry digital video and audio over somewhat-unreliable media. MPEG-2 Transport Stream is commonly used in broadcast applications, such as ATSC and DVB. MPEG-2 Systems also defines Program Stream, a container format that is designed for reasonably reliable media such as disks. MPEG-2 Program Stream is used in the DVD and SVCD standards. MPEG-2/System is formally known as ISO/IEC 13818-1 and as ITU-T Rec. H.222.0
