Sony re-releases This is BAD -- The Legacy Edition
On April 13, Sony re-released the first BAD album as a two-disc CD -- where should this go in the article? --Spiff666 (talk) 22:21, 20 April 2010 (UTC)

They WHAT?
They WHAT? The first paragraph currently ends:
 * Though ostensibly a group, they


 * Sorry about that chief! I wanted to point out that B.A.D.'s membership is very fluid except for Mick Jones and double-clutched about where to put that. It appears later in the article, but then I forgot to go back and remove the incomplete sentence at the front. -- User:Paul Drye

Digital sampling
I removed:'', is generally recognized as the first album by a major recording artist to include digital sampling techniques. ''. There are several problems with this - first, it is unattributed - generally recognised by whom? second, it can't be true - for example Peter Gabriel's 1982 album included "Shock the Monkey", which featured a Fairlight CMI, which really is "generally recognised" as the first digital sampling synth. However even that isn't completely agreed - the CMI article also mentions Kate Bush and others. Whichever is the case, 1982 is well before November 1985, which is when the BAD album was released.

"Cutting edge promise"
I changed "but with the possible exception of the 1989 release, BAD never really captured the cutting-edge promise of their debut album" to "but critics argue that the band never really captured the cutting-edge promise of their debut album, with the possible exception of the 1989 release." The original sentence was an opinion.

Sound clips from films/tv etc
Nearly every song has a short sample of a piece of audio from a film/tv/etc. I want to include it this information but I don't know where.  T r o u b l e s h o o t e r  19:16, 27 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I think such information should be included in album articles or even better in song articles. It would be too much on the artist page. Pietaster 19:17, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

band security director
I removed this info, is it noteworthy? maybe somehow fit it into the trivia section?--Bawtyshouse 19:01, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Big Audio Dynamite discography
 Support split - Discography section takes up more than one third of the page, and should be split to a new article entitled Big Audio Dynamite discography. --Jax 0677 (talk) 17:28, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
