Talk:Jokers Wild (band)

Untitled
Dick Parry is mentioned in the intro of the article, but then on the line-up other person appears as the sax player. Something's wrong or omitted I guess. --Astroguato 09:41, 14 July 2006 (UTC)


 * I found some fans webpages on this band, 1 or 2 years ago, but now I cant find it on the web: I hope I have back here on my personal archive. --Doktor Who 05:40, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Dick Parry was never a member of Jokers Wild, Astroguato. It's unclear where this rumour came from.  See reference "The Music Scene of 1960s Cambridge" (PDF). i-spysydincambridge.com/. Retrieved 26 October 2020. Papa Golf 9 (talk) 12:11, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

Cleanup
Some content on this page (such as band member descriptions), appears to be vandalism, but since I know nothing about this band, I can't be sure. Someone who is more knowledgeable please clean this page up. Thanks. Fleagle 02:20, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Genre
"Boozes-rock?" Forgive my playing the stereotypical ignorant American, but I haven't a clue what "boozes-rock," is supposed to be, and I don't doubt for a moment that I am the only one. Someone more knowledgeable than I should either start an article for boozes-rock or change the term used in this article to one which is a bit more recognizable. ccromwell 21:08, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Joker's or Jokers?
Is the band name "Joker's Wild" (per the article title) or "Jokers Wild" (per the article body)? GoingBatty (talk) 23:43, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

When was the album released?
I'll try to remember to look it up, to be sure, later today but if I don't then this article could really use a year of release for the album and single. It's strangely not mentioned at all. Dismas |(talk) 13:21, 11 October 2014 (UTC)
