personally, i feel that blues and country/western/country and western overlap a lot. Gringo300 07:53, 20 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

POV

I added the POV tag to this article. Here is one example of unsourced critique: "The music of the Dogs D'Amour can be described as a mixture of The Rolling Stones and Faces style roots rock and Hanoi Rocks style glam punk. Unlike popular bands of the time, who often had misogynistic themes, the Dogs D'Amour relied more on romantic themes and poetic style lyrics. Tyla was also a huge fan of Charles Bukowski, and many of his lyrics, delivered with an impelling throaty rasp, were tinged with humorous irony and pathos, reflecting Bukowski's prosaic style."

Can someone re-assess the article, and try for more balanced and, indeed, sourced text. Thank you,

The article, whilst largely devoid of too much opinionated guff, is now devoid of any real citations. Can someone try to improve matters ? - Derek R Bullamore (talk) 19:25, 26 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sludge metal

I got here from Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting, since the article had a red error message at the bottom. I've never heard of the band, and don't know how to tell "sludge metal" from any other kind of loud music! But the reference here does say "...and local sludge metal faves the Dogs D'Amour are ready to rock". So the article is correct in saying that "Their music has been described as sludge metal". -- John of Reading (talk) 12:28, 8 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi John of Reading. I also got here from Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting. The reference was once again removed by another user, causing another cite error again. I initially reverted the edits that caused the cite error, but as the reference was from a magazine in 2000 and perhaps it may be the case that the band's style has changed significantly since 2000, I've decided to trim the point about "sludge metal" (and comment out the cite from Spin temporarily) until there is a consensus from editors that the "sludge metal" label should be included in the article. Another alternative would have been to say something along the lines of "described in 2000 by Spin magazine as sludge metal", but I've decided to trim the "sludge metal" point for now to wait for consensus opinion. Please could I ask other editors, do you think the "sludge metal" label should be restored to the article or not? Kind Tennis Fan (talk) 02:53, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Kind Tennis Fan: Your edits look fine to me. I won't be editing it again unless someone drops it back into the error category. -- John of Reading (talk) 06:52, 13 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

steve james

not sure how this would fit in, without it being considered OR, but steve played in a teesside act called "cheyenne pearls" in the early 80s- sax, vocals- doing hanoi rocks, stray cats & so forth, as well as some original material. nowadays, he runs a guitar shop back in the north-east (saltburn, to be precise). the cheyenne pearls' bassist ended up in a band called heavy stereo, who eventually supplied their singer/guitarist gem archer to oasis. the pearls' drummer is one third of my band, radio massacre international. more pete frame than wikipedia, but here for the curious anyway.
