Album info

I don't see the point of copying the whole text from White Line Fever. If you're gonna put information from it, at least give it good rewrite. Roda 14:33, 6 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

I think derogatory things about living people are put better in other people's words. WP:BLP has a real problem with people being unfairly portrayed.--Alf melmac 14:46, 6 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
No, I'm not refering to the part of the text which is about Wurzel, but this part:

The band went into the studio with some great songs, Lemmy recalls, although "Sex and Death" was written in ten minutes on the last day of recording, "In Another Time" was altered beyond all recognition and there were three sets of lyrics for "Make 'Em Blind". Dee and Campbell didn't realise that "Out of the Sun" was only two and half verses and had rehearsed it as such so Lemmy added another section when nobody else was around, with him playing bass and Jamie, his guitar roadie, playing guitar, he then gave the others a tape of it — when Würzel played it in the rental car, Lemmy says he nearly drove of the road. "Make 'Em Blind" came from improvisation, Campbell did the solo in one take, falling over the couch and onto his back, laughing uproariously. Lemmy states that the album contains more nonsense than most of the previous album, the lyrics don't mean anything you can really get a hold of, but that they convey the mood, especially the title track and "Out of the Sun". "Dog Face Boy" is about Campbell, but Lemmy decided that only after having written it, likening the line "Poor boy out your mind again/ Jet plane outside looking for another friend" to Campbell's habit of quickly hitting town and looking for fun after getting off the plane

Ah, that's only really close from the words Lemmy states, which I thought was ok as he was stating it, I have changed the intermediate syntax. I thought there were enough <blockquote>s, its certainly not word for word though. I make the book having 200 or more words covering going into the studio to Campbell falling over, the above section is less than a 100 words.--Alf melmac 22:07, 6 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
