Talk:Tilt (Scott Walker album)

The Lightning Seeds' final album was also called Tilt, so at some point I guess this article will be moved. That is as long as someone finds the time to create a 'Tilt (The Lightning Seeds Album)' article!

Fair use rationale for Image:Scott Walker Tilt.jpg
Image:Scott Walker Tilt.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Tilt info
I feel the article has too much information, at least considering the appropiate reception of the album. Also someone should exchange the external links and put them as references, as I see the information comes mainly from these. One more thing, I am not sure of the explanation on how to put specifically a fair use rationale on the uploaded images, as I've seen the same situation over and over again.

Citation needed potential source
The citation for Tilt is also notable for being a now-rare instance of a contemporary musical recording which was actually recorded live in the studio without the enhancement of any electronic sample-based synthesis or guide tracks may be from this review of the release: http://www.wsws.org/articles/2002/jun2002/scot-j04.shtml, added citation link to article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lewisfrancis (talk • contribs) 21:04, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

"contemporary" 20 years ago maybe. "rare", well this is just not the case, particularly in this genre. If it was a hip hop or electropop album it might be. "sample based synthesis or guide tracks" then why is there a programmed bass drum in 'bouncer see bouncer' mentioned in the credits, that clearly is looped as a guide track?86.160.91.248 (talk) 00:04, 30 September 2016 (UTC)

"Throughout the song, Walker's chant of "Do I hear 21, 21, 21...? I'll give you 21, 21, 21...", which is not in Pasolini's original poem, may be a reference to Davoli's age when he was drafted into (and subsequently deserted from) the Italian army." - Where does this idea that it refers to Davoli's age come from? The "Do I hear 21 21 21" is obviously an auctioneer.

Smells like ... ummm ... something.
".. the lyrics are replete with arcane allusions and recondite wordplay and ellipses."

Well, if that isn't itself an arcane and recondite description, I don't know what is. A pity that the author didn't use ellipses.

But, I suppose, it's a creative way of saying that the lyrics are full of strange implications, obscure language, and seem unfinished. And, as intended, I suppose it impresses somebody. As, indeed, it was intended to. But I didn't expect to find such pseudo-intellectual bovine stuff in Wikipedia.2602:30B:8290:1299:28D1:593F:475F:D241 (talk) 18:51, 20 January 2014 (UTC)

This article is written from a completely subject view.
Articles on Wikipedia should always contain clear and undeniable information. This article reads like an album review instead of a source for information about it. That's not good. Lavair (talk) 19:53, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
