Talk:For Emma, Forever Ago

Contributing Musicians
I know I read somewhere that he had other people on the album, but this only lists Vernon. Can this be clarified? K1da42 (talk) 19:14, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * From reading the interview clip it seems as though he made it all himself, but then at the bottom it says that he had someone master it and a few other musicians as well.. A bit of conflict there.Willarveschoug (talk) 16:21, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

I think it was primarily recorded by Vernon alone, and then some additions were added at a later date. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.96.224.79 (talk) 06:44, 1 May 2012 (UTC)

due weight concern in Reception
i think the Reception section should be expanded a bit more, as long as the current amount of criticism is there especially from the one "C" review, to include additional praise. As it stands now, the reader is left with the impression that the one mediocre review is more important than it should be. i can give it a shot later after i look at review sources, but perhaps someone more familiar with the work would like to address this. cheers.

 * It's been over 2 years, but I agree. I see no reason to have the negative reviews at all when they are clearly not representative. Have removed. Uk55 (talk) 03:58, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

Location of the cabin
The article said the cabin where Vernon recorded the album was "roughly an hour northwest of his hometown and outside of Medford, Wisconsin". But a check of Google Maps shows that Medford is northeast, not northwest, of Eau Claire. The New York Times article cited for that sentence only says that the cabin was northwest of Eau Claire, and doesn't mention Medford. Googling "Bon Iver Medford", it looks like some other websites repeat the idea that the cabin was in Medford, but none of them are direct interviews with Vernon and they all look pretty recent, as if they may have gotten that idea from this WP article itself. So, does anyone know of an interview with Vernon or other primary source that gives a specific location for the cabin? Otherwise, there doesn't seem to be any trustworthy source indicating that the cabin was in Medford, and this would actually conflict with what the NY Times says. So I'm taking out the mention of Medford for now. GranChi (talk) 17:17, 15 May 2018 (UTC)
