message: When Last was a teenager, were there bass guitars? I think what he played as a teenager is a double bass... or not? AlvaroBecerra 07:47, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Bass guitar???

message: In this article, we are told no less than three times that the material composed and published by James Last is "terrific". I could think of other adjectives that could be used, but to spare those who are James Last fans I'll refrain from doing so. I'll settle for noting that the article as it stands hardly can be said to conform to Wikipedia's NPOV requirements.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.97.2.35 (talk) 12:48, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Why is there no mention of the name "Hansi" that his fans affectionately call him?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.246.67.80 (talk) 03:59, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

message: "The song "The Lonely Shepherd", was not written by Last, as many erroneously believe. It was written by an unknown artist. However, on many records he claims the credit for it. This very little known song was performed by Gheorghe Zamfir for over three decades before Tarantino had decided to use it in his film. Only then James Last Orchestra has done an improvised recording with Gheorghe Zamfir, which was featured in the soundtrack to Quentin Tarantino's film Kill Bill Vol. 1 (2003).[2]" - I clearly remember Gheorge Zamfir playing "The Lonely Shepherd" on the James Last television show in the 1980s.  I believe it was also on on of Last's earlier albums.  The suggestion that Last only featured it in his shows after the release of "Kill Bill" is rubbish.

thread_title:  Age? 

message: I sometime feel that all articles that deals with things that are unknown in North America automatically gets a "Source warning". James Last was and still is, "in his domain", huge. Specially in the generation that were a bit "too old" when Beatles became world famous. Whenever my parents had party when I was a kid, James Last, Les Humhries Singers and Frank Valdor was played instead of f.i. Creedence, Stones, Staus Quo, Sweet or whatever. I've compared with German Wiki (a language I can understand in wrighting, and speak with lousy grammar up to a certain level). There is no indication what so ever that there is any reason to doubt this article. 83.249.173.100 (talk) 02:55, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Unsourced ? 

message: I removed the BLP sources tag dating from March 2011. Derek R Bullamore was right then as the article at that stage was poorly referenced offering not more than 3 references. This has been improved significantly since then so imo the tagging isn't necessary any longer.--91.61.123.127 (talk) 13:27, 11 June 2015 (UTC)

message: I was going to tag this very short article, Mornings at Seven, with speedy deletion as per WP:CSD#A9 but realized the information could be merged with James Last. I'm just not sure if the information is even notable enough to be in the the James Last article. What do you think? Maestroso simplo (talk) 22:44, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Haha. Mornings at Seven is not an article. It's two sentences. Martinevans123 (talk) 23:03, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: ha, I guess calling it an article was overkill. So, add to James Last or delete? Maestroso simplo (talk) 23:06, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Well it needs a source! But I think it's quite a notable tune for people in UK, most of whom would not know it was by Last. So, if sources can be found, that at least mention it, I'd certainly add it in. Martinevans123 (talk) 23:18, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
replies: text:  Okay, I've found a source. I'll add the source and then merge Mornings at Seven to James Last. Maestroso simplo (talk) 00:13, 12 January 2016 (UTC)
replies: text:  I added a few more references and then inserted it into James Last#Work. I'll mark this merger as closed. If anyone comes across this merger discussion and disagrees with it, please let me know. Thanks! Maestroso simplo (talk) 02:33, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

message: The discography section is quite long. Perhaps the more notable entries could be listed with a separate article for the full discography. Jonpatterns (talk) 17:07, 21 May 2016 (UTC)
