[edit] Shortest Album

The article claims that this is Dylan's shortes album, but I believe it has 10 tracks while Desire has 9. Am I right? minutes not tracks —Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.180.162.92 (talk) 19:15, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Argh

I'm not proposing anything here, just making a rant on an example why, in the olden days, we used to include "such as" in our arsenal of phrases along with "like". The person wrote:

"Unlike other country-rock excursions, like The Byrds' landmark Sweetheart of the Rodeo, Nashville Skyline was rooted far more in modern country than in rural folk music."

This can mean two different things:

  1. "Unlike other country-rock excursions -- for instance, The Byrds' landmark Sweetheart of the Rodeo -- Nashville Skyline was rooted far more in modern country than in rural folk music."
  2. "Unlike other country-rock excursions, but like The Byrds' landmark Sweetheart of the Rodeo, Nashville Skyline was rooted far more in modern country than in rural folk music."

I'd fix it, but I don't know which meaning the writer intended and am not familiar with the Byrds album named. It only the person had written "Unlike other country-rock excursions, such as The Byrds' landmark...", if that's what he meant. But I guess "such as" has gone the way of the Dodo... </rant> Herostratus 21:07, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] different voice

Dylan's voice in that album was different from the one we knew; i once heard on the grapevine that he had quit smoking for a while, and that was the reason why. True ?

[edit] The Charlatans - North Country Boy - parodies the Nashville Skyline album cover

http://www.discogs.com/release/386292

It was a single of theirs... think this would be appropriate to add to this page in a trivia section? --HisSpaceResearch 01:33, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Grammar

Cash also wrote the Grammy-winning album notes for the album.

The album notes won the grammy? haha —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.127.61.123 (talk) 23:34, 9 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:NashvilleSkyline.jpg

Image:NashvilleSkyline.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

[edit] Country???

What is Lilly Rosemary & The Jack of Harts?He has his own style. Yes it is somewhat of a departure from Folk/Rock but the split between Folk ,Rock ,Country is vague at best especially when acoustic guitar is envolved. -Nate Riley Registering soon N8Riley@inbox.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.66.116.58 (talk) 15:09, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
