Talk:Steve Miller Band

message: Steve Miller Band is a relatively well known band, on par with CCR and Lynyrd Skynyrd. This article should be expanded IMO Έρεβος 21:09, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Expansion 

message: The early years. This site http://www.gangster-of-love.com/bio.html is where I got the information, can somebody help me out a little bit with citation? I'm a little new here...
Thanks,

thread_title:  I expanded the history section. 

message: Nicky is in the "Former Members" list, and yet he's not listed in the Timeline diagram. Either he's been forgotten from the Timeline list, or he was never really an actual member of the band which I think is the case. Maybe "Former Members" is misleading?

message: I've added this album to the discography.  While the Wikipedia page for the album states that it is not an official album, stevemillerband.com lists it in their discography; and the discography on this Wikipedia page lists other compilation albums.  If anyone thinks it should be removed, I won't mind, but please state your reasons.

message: I have this compilation album that goes great with the '74-'78 hits package--how come it isn't in the discography?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.151.1.253 (talk) 14:31, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Best of 1968-1973?? 

message: I fail to see how this 'Band' article, and the musician's own page (as per this section's heading), radically differ in content.  OK, they are not mirror images of each other, but I suggest either merging the two as they presently stand (taking the best referenced and formatted pieces of each) OR  basically altering both of them to provide definite distinct entities.  Presently it is hardly a seamless join, but looking at each page it appears, to me, to suggest one is rather mutual to the other.  Any other thoughts ?

replies: text: I think the band and the musician are notable enough to have their own pages like The Spencer Davis Group and Spencer Davis pages. But, Steve Miller page needs some cleaning, since it's mostly talking about the band rather than the musician himself, possibly that makes one think that these two pages could be merged. Altering both of them to provide definite distinct entities sounds reasonable, methinks. ~ Elitropia (talk) 08:49, 16 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  [[Steve Miller (musician)|Steve Miller]] 

message: I formerly owned a copy of this album ("Book of Dreams" with the picture imprinted onto the disc), and am interested to know more about it. Is there any way to learn how many of this disc were made? Were any other Steve Miller LP's made with pictures on the disc? Any other pertinent information about it available?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.101.61.187 (talk) 00:49, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

message: The article says Miller suffered a broken neck, but there is nothing about the severity of his injuries or his recovery. Presumably he didn't become a quadriplegic. Aren't there any sources on his injury? 173.248.252.31 (talk) 01:28, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Loose Thread 

message: This article seems like a stub without mention of Steve's touring - he was the top grossing band for many years when touring revenues were included. I hope someone with resources could research those numbers? The Steve Miller Band kicked many asses in concert over the years!  Nickrz (talk) 22:34, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  What about touring? 

message: Okay, I've seen a CD compilation in a store that was simply called "Greatest Hits". It was a three-disc set, and the cover art was almost exactly the same as Greatest Hits 1974-78, except predominantly orange/yellow rather than blue. Anyone have any info on this they can add to Wikipedia? -Skinr  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Skinr (talk • contribs) 05:21, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Greatest Hits 3-disc set? 

message: Wasn't this band (including Steve Miller) busted in England in March or February of 1968 for posession of heroin, cocaine and marijuana? If so, shouldn't that be noted in the article? --50.141.213.227 (talk) 05:48, 6 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: In Glyn Johns' book, Sound Man, Johns talks about the incident which coincided with the group's first visit to do the recording for the first album. He had barely met the group at the time, but they were charged with 'importing drugs and possession of a firearm'. Johns was asked to be a character witness and, hopefully, post bail for the group in magistrate's court. I'll see if I can work the info in in a way that makes sense in the context of the article. As the article stands right now it is in need of appropriate expansion. THX1136 (talk) 18:32, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
