Talk:Don't Shoot Me I'm Only the Piano Player

Songwriting credits before the track listing
As far as I can tell, songwriting credits when all or nearly all songs are by the same writer(s) are just after the Tracklisting section and just before the track list itself. It is not a policy but I believe it is more useful. You need not scroll down the page to find credits if they are not individually listed for each song. --Fantailfan 19:03, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Exclusive Australian Single?
Does anyone know if "Blues for My Baby and Me" was an exclusive, Australia-only single from this album? Eligius (talk) 07:45, 25 April 2014 (UTC)
 * allmusic sez "'Blues For Baby And Me' never saw a single release but it has become a cult favorite with the singer’s fans http://www.allmusic.com/song/blues-for-my-baby-and-me-mt0045203806 but then allmusic is a US-based web site. Discogs, which is more international, has no entry for that song as a single. Fantailfan (talk) 14:28, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

Inspiration for Crocodile Rock
It definitely sounds like Bobby Vee to me. The "Eagle Rock" inspiration in the following paragraph. is unsourced. I think it should be removed, or sourced and incorporated into the preceding paragraph in a way that acknowledges both inspirations. And yes, it has been almost eight years between comments by me on this talk section. Wow. Fantailfan (talk) 14:24, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

citation
Is there a reference to the claim that Château d'Hérouville was called Strawberry Studios? There was a Strawberry Studios owned by members of 10cc. 22yearswothanks (talk) 23:02, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Could http://honkychateau.fr/ be used as a reference -- it appears to be the official site of Château d'Hérouville -- or this reference insufficiently reliable and verifiable? AlineXu (talk) 00:35, 17 January 2018 (UTC)
 * I've added a reliable, verifiable reference -- article in The Guardian newspaper -- to support the claim that Château d'Hérouville was called Strawberry Studios. AlineXu (talk) 15:01, 17 January 2018 (UTC)

chronology
The article on Elton’s album “Madman Across the Water” refers at least twice to it being EJ's fourth studio album. According to the sequence laid out in the "chronology" info box, as well as the information provided in the articles on the individual previous albums, it is his fifth studio album. I edited that article to reflect that, but reverted the edit after seeing that the numbering of subsequent albums – including this one – seems to follow the "Madman" chronology. (This article describes "Don't Shoot" as sixth, rather than seventh. Maybe it's a mistake... maybe it's a "UK releases vs US releases" thing, given that Empty Sky wasn't released in the US until '75... but whatever the reason I felt that I am not qualified to change an entire string of entries.
