[edit] Quality

Reads like a low brow magazine article, not an encyclopedia one.

That's wikipedia for you. Don't expect consistent and high quality writing on wikipedia. Except semi-reliable facts, no more. --Kvaks 19:26, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Adrian Belew did not do the Bob Dylan impression on the Frank Zappa album "Sheik Yerbouti." It was done by percussion player Ed Mann. The Zappa video called "The Dub Room Special" features Ed Mann doing the impression before the cameras. I have removed the information about this from the Adrian Belew article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.212.69.96 (talk) 05:51, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Anybody who is familiar with Belew's style would immediately recognize him imitating Dylan on 'Shiek Yerbouti'. The album specifically credits Belew! LogicalOctopus (talk) 22:50, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Didn't Belew do the Dylan imitation in the Baby Snakes movie? It's been a while and my memory may be hazy, but...Frunobulax (talk) 14:18, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
