Images:

Done 6: Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content:  Done Check for copyright tags (WP:TAGS):  Done Image 1 (Tragic Lovers, Oregon Symphony.jpg): This image is of a cover of an audio recording, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher of the work or the artist(s) which produced the recording or cover artwork in question. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of such covers (1) solely to illustrate the audio recording in question, and (2) on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Other use of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. Image 2 (Bush DePriest.jpg): This work is in the public domain. The creator permanently relinquished all rights to the work. Check for copyright status:  Done Image 1 (Tragic Lovers, Oregon Symphony.jpg): (Non-free content) Image 2 (Bush DePriest.jpg): (PD) Check for non-free content (WP:NFC):  Done (Yes) Image 1 (Tragic Lovers, Oregon Symphony.jpg): (Non-free content) Check for valid fair use rationales (WP:FUR):  Done (valid) Source (WP:NFCC#4): Amazon.com Use in article (WP:NFCC#7): Tragic Lovers Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8): Main infobox. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as cover art. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original artwork, namely the artist's providing graphic design services to music concerns and in turn marketing music to the public. Replaceable? (WP:NFCC#1): As musical cover art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the music would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. 6: Images are provided if possible and are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:  Done Check for image relevance (WP:IMAGE RELEVANCE):  Done Image 1 (Tragic Lovers, Oregon Symphony.jpg): Relevant to the article Image 2 (Bush DePriest.jpg): Relevant to the article Check for Images for the lead (WP:LEADIMAGE):  Done Image 1 (Tragic Lovers, Oregon Symphony.jpg): Appropriate & Representative Check for suitable captions (WP:CAPTION):  Done Caption 1 - "Studio album by Oregon Symphony" (succinct and informative) Caption 2 - "DePreist being congratulated by President George W. Bush after receiving the National Medal of Arts in 2005" (succinct and informative)

As per the above checklist, the issues identified are:

• The lead does not Provide an accessible overview and does not give Relative emphasis to Broadcasts and Reception. These major points should be incorporated in the lead.
• The lead does not Provide an accessible overview and does not give Relative emphasis to Composition. The lead is all composition at present.
