Moog synthesizer acquisition

According to this Moog shipping record, the Beatles got a Moog in January 1969. This article says George's Moog album was recorded in November 1968 and February 1969. If he used the same instrument, the November date for recording would be suspect. --Blainster 20:37, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Further reading says that the second side was recorded in California with Bernie Krause. This would answer the question: The early side was recorded on Krause's instrument.--Blainster 20:49, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Seems highly unlikely that George Harrison or any one else would go to the trouble and expense of shipping one of the early Moog systems from the across the Atlantic unless it was absolutely necessary. These machines were very large, heavy and fragile. I suspect that the Moog used by Beaver and Krause in Los Angeles stayed in California and the one bought by Harrison was shipped directly to England. Therefore the only likely scenario seems to be that each side of this album was recorded on a different Moog instrument. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.24.235.141 (talk) 04:20, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Wrong track order on the CD

Rather wierd that I am the first one here to figure out that the track order is wrong on the CD version of this album. I guess no one really bothered to really pay much attention. "Under The Mersey Wall" is the 25 minute track and should be track number 1. "No Time Or Space" should be the 18 minute track and is track number 2. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.24.235.141 (talk) 04:35, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

First studio album?

How is Wonderwall Music not a studio album? Radiopathy •talk• 21:15, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

That's actually a very good question. I was about to start a discussion on your talk page, but we'll keep it here, I suppose. As I understand it, soundtrack albums aren't generally considered studio albums for numbering purposes. For some reason. Again, I don't know why. To be honest, I was basically going by how our George Harrison template presents his discography. I did remove the "Experimental albums" list in the template and moved Electronic Sound to the "Studio albums" section, as there was precedent for that at the Paul McCartney template about a year ago. Going by that numbering, I decided to go through an number all the albums in the lede, as that's pretty standard practice for other artists and groups (all the Beatles albums, to cite an example with which we'll both be familiar).
