Talk:Surveillance (FM album)

Cover art description/interpretation
I've deleted the sentence that describes the cover art as depicting, a "giant TV screen attached to an urban office tower". Looks, to me, more like a close-up of a C.R.T. monitor from a closed-circuit video surveillance system, as suggested/implied by the album title, with a curtain hanging behind it (on left) and electrical conduit, or pipes, running up the wall (on right).

Sections removed from article which discusses detail pertaining to other albums, for redistribution to other pages
Seems as though these details should appear, instead, on pages pertaining to these specific recordings, if they don't already:

"Their first album (Black Noise, 1977) was initially a limited edition, and their second (Direct to Disc, 1978) was exclusively a limited edition. A non-limited reissue of Black Noise was the group's first release by Passport, even though it featured an earlier lineup with Nash the Slash instead of his replacement, Ben Mink, the change having taken place before the band signed to the label."

"Larry Fast of "Synergy" is credited with assistance; he would be the producer of FM's next album, City of Fear."Eel Notluad (talk) 03:28, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Paragraph discussing detail of record company changes difficult to follow
I feel that this paragraph is interesting but a bit difficult to follow, and shouldn't appear at the top of the article/page:

"One week before the intended release date, Passport's Canadian parent company, GRT Records went out of business, but Capitol Records bought the Canadian division of Passport from Visa Records (Passport's parent company in the USA), becoming its new parent company in Canada, and issued the album as the first of a new catalogue number sequence, PB-2001. It was also issued in the USA by Arista Records as Arista / Passport AB-4246."
