Set Album to Class B & Top Importance Megamanic 08:42, 24 August 2006 (UTC)


In the wrting credits what does "themes by.." mean? does it refer to musical ideas or lyrics? -unisgned comment by 81.77.174.25.

I think it is a collaboration credit for the music, in particular the styles woven into the completed piece. I will check. --Fantailfan 16:55, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Removed commentary

This below text removed from 'track listing' section of article as didn't belong there - also looks like original research, but may be can be worked in elsewhere in the body text???

(This track is written in supposedly written in sonata form, but it does not conform strictly. There is no proper development in which two themes are varied; no cadenza; and in the recapitulation, the second theme does not stay in the same key as the first. It could more properly be described as a fantasia within a large AABA structure, much like Mozart's Fantasia in c-minor, K. 475.)

Fair use rationale for Image:CloseEdge.jpg

Image:CloseEdge.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Rolling Stone Rating

Following Wikipedia guidelines, I've replaced "Not Rated" to "favorable" before the Rolling Stone link. While I believe that it is absolutely justified, your input (after parsing the Rolling Stone article yourself) would be much appreciated. 24.61.46.110 (talk) 02:22, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

And You and I

i'd like someone to please talk about the first seconds of and you and i, that you can hear someone saying "OK!" i think its steve howe, but i'd like someone to verify this and add it, thanks FloydNIN (talk) 22:35, 6 February 2008 (UTC) As a life-long guitarist this particular few seconds have always brought me great joy. Steve Howe is actually checking the tuning of his guitar which is why you hear the cascading harmonics. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.127.181.211 (talk) 19:09, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
