Talk:John Henry (album)

Some Words
The sounds have rarely been revisited even though some fans would argue John Henry to be their best album.

This is in Wikipedia's guidelines, but I'll reiterate: phrases like "some would argue", "some might say", "some believe" and other variations of this sentiment are considered weasel words around here. Basically, "some people" would argue anything, and that aint a valid or encyclopdic source to cite. If you had a published media article documenting the intriguing volume of fan interest in John Henry despite the negative critical reception, this line would fit into the article. Otherwise, it's un-encyclopedic opinion that is unsourceable. It's pretty standard for a critically panned album by a popular artist to have it's admirers, and not particularly noteworthy. --relaxathon 16:18, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I agree. Also, the line:
 * John Henry is TMBG's ...most divisive [record]
 * is definitely NPOV. This should be changed ASAP. Anyone agree? ~ AnklePants
 * No, actually. It WAS a divisive album. A VERY divisive one. It's one of those albums that fans are rarely neutral on--either you love it or you think it's some of their worst stuff. I'm not sure it's the right wording, but it's not NPOV. ~Shippinator Mandy

Discography
How is it that this is TMBG's fifth studio album yet the "sixth disc" in their discography? Which of the numerous EPs and things is being included to make mystery disc six? I think that needs a citation; I can't find find anything to support that. Blue william 02:07, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
 * It's quite clearly Miscellaneous T. Perhaps you needed to be a fan before the internet became widespread to see why! Often we didn't know about the EPs and so on - we only knew what came to the record stores. I don't think anyone will ever pull up a citation that Wikipedia will be happy with, but I doubt anybody would disagree with me on this. Happy for the remark to remain. 80.4.202.8 (talk) 22:38, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion?
Someone has added a "speedy deletion" tag to the article, but the explanation given doesn't make any sense. What's going on here? This album page shouldn't be deleted. Egpetersen 15:17, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
