Talk:Roll the Bones

message: The quote that Neil made describes a number of the songs: title track, "Face Up", "The Big Wheel", "Ghost of a Chance" &  "You Bet Your Life".  Does anyone know how to get rid of the big verticle space between what is said immediately before the quote and the quote itself?  V Schauf (talk) 04:56, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

message: If Roll the Bones peaked at #3, then there had to have been 2 others above it, right? So how is it that "only ... Metallica's Metallica ... prevent[ed] it from hitting #1 in the US"? There should be another album in the way too. So, what is that other album? --Patrick T. Wynne 18:58, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

message: There appears to be a reference to the song in the online game World of Warcraft, in a quest named Roll The Bones. Should this be added to the articvle or is it not noteable enough. B-Talbot (talk) 21:01, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: The title of the album, and certainly the song AMY, were inspired by his breakup with Amy Lombardi, but it's possible other songs were inspired by Carrie Hamilton. Carrie Hamilton died in 2002, and is mentioned in the liner notes of Demolition, so he must have dated her around the time Heartbreaker was written/recorded.

Talk:Abraxas (album)

message: I know of no attribution for the title to be derived from Hesse; a search of "Abraxas", even in WikiP, shows several possibilities. Google is worse (quelle surprise!). Does anyone have a verifiable source for this? --Rodhullandemu 01:44, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Its on the OBVERSE (back) of the album, with full accreditation to Hesse. Its on at least the original vinyl release. What we don't know is whether Hesse was using the term precisely as the Gnostics did, or was, alternately, riffing on the word. I'll fix the article accordingly.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 03:13, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Bridge over Troubled Water

message: There is a claim in the article about the album being the best-selling album in 1970, 1971, and 1972:
:It was the best-selling album in 1970, 1971 and 1972 and was at that time the best-selling album of all time.[38] 
:[38]  Ebel 2004, p. 68.
:Ebel, Roswitha (2004). Paul Simon: seine Musik, sein Leben [Paul Simon: His Music, His Life] (in German). epubli. ISBN 978-3-937729-00-8.
As much as I want this to be true, the reference is vague (is it world-wide or in a particular country, across genres or in a specific genre, etc) and I cannot find evidence to back this up after a couple of hours of searching.

replies: text: I remember seeing the estimate of ten million LP copies sold worldwide by 1975. By then, it was noted as the best-selling album of all time, a position it may have held until Thriller came along. Strausszek (talk) 12:54, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Best-selling album in 1970, 1971 and 1972 

message: The recording dates for the songs here are really inaccurate and oversimplified. Making the album was a famously drawn-out process, for many reasons. Both "The Boxer" and "Bridge Over Troubled Water" took weeks of recording sessions (not just rehearsals) and at least "Bridge" (the song) was recorded both in LA and NYC, a couple of weeks apart (and almost certainly finished before November). A track like "The Only Living Boy in New York" with its elaborate vocals would have taken several days of recording too. When Simon has been talking about the making of the album, he's stressed that it was being worked on all through the autumn, even when Artie wasn't around. Also, mixing work continued through the Christmas season, into early January (see Victoria Kingston's thorough biography of the band from around 1990).
Both men are on record in interviews saying that Bridge and Boxer had their vocal tracks pieced together from many different takes, "punching in" phrases to keep a high technical level in Artie's singing - just like Steely Dan would do with instrumental tracks a decade later. Actually I don't think any of these songs were recorded in a single day, except "Cecilia" (and "Bye Bye Love" of course, being recorded live on stage). Strausszek (talk) 19:40, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

text: All Eleocharis that I'm familiar with are "almost leafless" (undeveloped leaf sheath around the base of the stem) (one example: ). I see this doesn't apply to all sedges... are there any other easy ways we can distinguish them? I remember a botanist professor mentioning that grasses grow from the base rather than the tip (good for being grazed on), I wonder what growing habits sedges have. --Chira 14:30, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

message: I've heard mixed answers regarding FCC regulations regarding broadcast networks being required to broadcast over the air as part of their licensing agreements. I would love to see this addressed in this article. 
Are there any OTA requirements, or can a broadcast network in a local market exclusively deliver via non-free cable agreements or other non-OTA methods? If there ARE OTA requirements, what are they (coverage, signal strength, content)? 
If not, then are local broadcasters of the big 3 or 4 networks completely at their own discretion when it comes to maintaining transmitters and delivering free OTA content (which in some markets may not be as lucrative and cost effective as others).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.221.73.212 (talk) 15:57, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
