Voodo Child(slight return).[edit]

Shouldn't Voodo Child be in the singles list?..it reached number one in the UK. 86.183.140.255 (talk) 14:43, 28 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It was released after Jimi's death, so it is included in Jimi Hendrix posthumous discography. Andre666 (talk) 14:56, 28 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Recordings with Little Richard[edit]

Copied from Friends from the Beginning – Little Richard and Jimi Hendrix (which I added):

So far, Hendrix biographers have identified only two songs he recorded with Richard, but are uncertain about the dates: "I Don't Know What You've Got (But It's Got Me)", a two-part single released by Vee-Jay Records in November 1965, and "Dancing All Around the World".[1] Neither song appears on this album [Friends from the Beginning], although they are included on the West Coast Seattle Boy: The Jimi Hendrix Anthology (2010).[1] In July 1965, Hendrix played guitar during a WLAC-TV television appearance by Upsetters [Richards'] backup singers Buddy & Stacy.[2] They performed the Junior Walker hit "Shotgun", which was broadcast on Night Train, a Nashville, Tennessee, music variety show.[2]

Many albums promoted as Hendrix backing Richard have been shown to be bogus (see Shapiro for a partial list).[3]

This sure uses a lot of WP:CIRC. I don't wish to start any demotion process, but it sure would not have been accepted as a WP:FL these days. It's also missing certifications for singles, which may be more more important than charts, showing long-term sales. --Muhandes (talk) 19:40, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Muhandes: I'm not aware of the use of Wikipedia and sources that mirror or use it in this discography. Could you please explain and provide some examples. Also, which singles are missing certifications? The eight singles listed by BPI show that they were released between 2000 and 2010 by different record companies than those listed here (with dates and labels from cited reliable sources). Also, as explained at Talk:Little Wing#2010 single, I can't find any evidence that, apart from a live version used as a posthumous B-side, that "Little Wing" was even released as single. RIAA doesn't list any (Hendrix was primarily an album artist). —Ojorojo (talk) 21:46, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Ojorojo: All the columns marked as "Other" are using other Wikipedia articles as sources. I get your point about single certifications, I was referring to modern BPI certifications. Muhandes (talk) 21:51, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Muhandes: That is not correct – if you click on the inline cites under "Other", you will see the sources used. For albums [13], they are:
and for singles [31], they are:
I don't see that the "modern BPI certifications" have any bearing on the original singles issued by his authorized record companies. Given the release dates and labels listed by BPI, these are probably for streaming/downloads. This type of info is best for the song articles and not for a discography of "Hendrix's recordings released prior to his death on September 18, 1970".
Ojorojo (talk) 22:11, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Ojorojo: I see. Well, I guess I was wrong about it all. The wikilinks in the footnotes back to the articles fooled me into thinking they are the sources. I'm sure other readers are fooled as well. Muhandes (talk) 22:18, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Muhandes: I'll try to make it more obvious. So others won't be fooled as well, I went ahead and struck through your first two sentences. Thanks. —Ojorojo (talk) 22:35, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ojorojo: Hello! Thank you for your thoughtful and detailed responses in this section. I think you've explained things very clearly, and you seem to have persuaded Muhandes as well. "P.S." I hope you won't think that I'm being overly fastidious, but it's better not to strike out another editor's posts. See WP:TPO for more on this. Mudwater (Talk) 00:25, 20 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Mudwater: Maybe my updates will make it easier. P.S. Fair enough, removed. —Ojorojo (talk) 16:49, 20 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! Mudwater (Talk) 16:52, 20 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I would have stricken it out myself if I thought there was a point, but there is nothing to hide. I made a mistake in understanding the sourcing of article, Ojorojo corrected me, and we all move forward to build an encyclopedia. That's all there is to it. At least I didn't get the {{trout}} I may have deserved. --Muhandes (talk) 17:05, 20 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Muhandes: Sometimes editors strike out their own comments after they've changed their mind about something. It's totally optional though, so follow your own preference. Also, we should leave out the trout in this case. You raised what seemed to you like a legitimate concern, and Ojorojo was inspired to improve the article based on that. So, yeah, we are good, in my view. Mudwater (Talk) 17:53, 20 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
