 * Grabbing this for a review. I will have my comments up by the end of next week by the latest. Aoba47 (talk) 23:56, 20 May 2017 (UTC)


 * Comments from Aoba47
 * I do not believe you need “recorded by” and you can just say “by”.
 * I would just use “American singer” rather than “American vocalist”. This is a very minor note, but just wanted to make this recommendation to keep this in line with other GAs and FAs on albums.
 * The phrase “take to Larry King Live” sounds a little odd to me; I would just say “In a 1991 interview on Larry King Live, Streisand revealed that Butterfly was her last favorite album in her music catalog.”
 * In the sentence n the “Sound and recording” section, I would specify who is suggesting that Tom Scott was more in control of the album’s production than Peter. The phrase “it was suggested” is a little vague.
 * The phrase (Single "Guava Jelly" is track two and a cover of Bob Marley’s 1971 single) should be revised to avoid the repetition of the word “single”.
 * Please link “Life on Mars” upon the first mention in the body of the article (it is already linked in the track listing).
 * I would link “Let the Good Times Roll” in the body of the article (it is already linked in the track listing). Same for “Crying Time”.
 * Just a clarification question, but did Streisand perform any of the material for this album live? If so, information on that would be appropriate for this article.
 * I'm sure she probably did, but I unfortunately haven't come across any references that would back this claim up. Even if she did perform a bit of this stuff live, it probably wasn't miss considering his dissatisfaction with the album. Carbrera (talk) 23:09, 21 May 2017 (UTC).
 * Makes sense to me. It sounds like she was very unhappy with the end result of this, and getting sources on live performances for the promotion of a 70s album is very hard so I completely understand that. Aoba47 (talk) 23:18, 21 May 2017 (UTC)


 * I am a little confused by the “Track listing” section as the “8-track cartridge edition” shows 10 tracks and appears to be the same from the “Standard edition”.
 * It is roughly the same, except "Jubilation" and "Crying Time" are switched around. Carbrera (talk) 23:09, 21 May 2017 (UTC).
 * Oh, I see now. Thank you for clarifying this for me. Aoba47 (talk) 23:17, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
