Talk:Voodoo (D'Angelo album)

The Soultronics
Hi everybody,

Working on French Wikipedia version, I've just created an article about band having followed D'angelo during Voodoo Tour. I checked your Wikipedia and it seems this article don't exist yet.

Please find here the french article in order (if someone's interested of course) to translate it.

You can contact in my Discussion page.

Enjoy :). Laszlo, french wikipedia contributor. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.167.236.237 (talk) 11:12, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

Chicago Tribune review
I have been able to gather bits of Voodoo's Chicago Tribune review by Greg Kot from googlenews archive search. It sounds like a 3½/4 or 4/4 star review, but I could not find Kot's rating (it is usually posted for a Kot review for the Tribune). Here is what I got so far:

Musical Construction
I'd like to see this article be more rigorous as to how the album was actually made. For example, the sample of "Spanish Joint" is listed as containing no overdubs, yet Roy Hargrove's trumpet is clearly playing chords (and around the 4:30 mark can be heard playing a melody and chords almost simultaneously). So either the assertion of no overdubs is incorrect (perhaps taken from marketing hype?), or some rather heavy effects were used to modify the trumpet during recording or in post-production. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.119.64.200 (talk) 00:52, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

This article is too long
Maybe try to condense it? You're not writing a book about one album. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.80.141.100 (talk) 18:50, 25 August 2012 (UTC)


 * Go for it. Dan56 (talk) 21:48, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

Reference
Hello folks, I noticed that reference no.3 (including the archived bit) points to nothing, I've found the actual article at http://www.prweb.com/releases/dangelo/rcamusicgroup/prweb1717364.htm but I'm honestly quite bad at editing references, if anyone could help I'd be thankful... otherwise could you point me to a guide or something?

 * I've updated the link in the article, which is in pretty mediocre shape as far as citation formatting. Dan56 (talk) 20:02, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
