Music for Our Mother Ocean
edit- ... that the Music for Our Mother Ocean (MOM) series of benefit albums featured a wide array of popular musicians, including Paul McCartney, Snoop Dogg, the Beach Boys and the Beastie Boys?
- ALT1 ... that the Music for Our Mother Ocean (MOM) series of benefit albums featured popular 1990s musicians covering classic surf rock songs?
- I'd personally prefer the main hook, as it shows the disparate selection of artists. Also the Beastie Boys are in the news right now, since Adam Yauch passed away. I'm hoping to get this in for May 13, Mother's Day (US).

- date and length fine, many sources for the reviews. I would prefer to see a few of the famous names - at least those mentioned in the hook - in the lead and in the article, ref in article. Please fix double mentioning of ref 2 and grammar in "and he singling-out". Perhaps mention MOM in the hook? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:25, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review. I've addressed the issues mentioned. I don't think I could mention the specific artists in the intro without adding undue weight, as there are dozens of other famous artists involved. I added an additional review at the bottom that mentions all artists by name, which is sourced to the same page as the tracklist at AllMusic. ▫ JohnnyMrNinja 23:48, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
