[edit] Solo Album "The Rhythmatist"
Should be mentioned in a discography. (ALV) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 207.225.143.253 (talk) 22:47, 8 December 2006 (UTC).
It would be nice if there was some sort of a discography. Ttenchantr 07:20, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Frequently cited ...
Can anyone tell me what the "Frequently cited recordings with the Police include:" actually is there for? Seems like filler and should be removed. The albums are listed at the bottom. Why the tracks list as well? Candy 07:39, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Klark Kent
Sting was on the sleeve of an early single. Any Pics ?
[edit] Nationality
His father is American, his mother Scottish. Should his nationality be Scottish-American / American-Scottish rather than just American? He didn't spend much time in the US whe he was growing up. What nationality is he / does he consider himself? 86.133.246.224 09:27, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
He considers himself American, and has since early childhood (in Beirut he went to the American School and in Millfield he was "the American kid"), even though both of his wives and most of his friends are English. That doesn't stop him complaining about the way Americans make tea though. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.32.185.181 (talk) 20:08, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Amanda Show theme music
I think that we should add a mention somewhere in the article to the fact that Copeland wrote the theme song to "The Amanda Show". Of note, it was originally written for the level "Wizard's Peak" in "Spyro the Dragon" (Yeah, I play video games too often for a man my age.). Possible citations can be found at the comment forums at [[1]] and [[2]] and at [[3]]. Obviously, none of those are suitable for Wikipedia; however, I suppose it's a start. --Apple1976 (talk) 03:29, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Oysterhead relevance.
Copeland's participation in the group is limited to a sentence in the "late career" section. I think this warrants a larger emphasis such as appears on Claypool's page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by AQpool (talk • contribs) 02:49, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Removal of name
I have removed Stewart Copeland from the names of examples of multi-instrumentalists because, while Copeland may stray a bit, his emphasis over his musical career is certainly the drums, and really, to give examples of multi-instrumentalists on such a short list, there are many other musicians who play a much wider variety that are very different from one another. An example would be Curtis Mayfield, who played guitar, bass, drums, clarinet, saxophone, and keyboards. Or-- currently, a better example would be Emily Robison of the Dixie Chicks who, in one concert will switch instruments several times between the dobro, banjo, sitar, mandolin, and guitar. --leahtwosaints (talk) 03:33, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Merger proposal
Klark Kent has had so little release, I don't think that Klark Kent singles Discography is a necessary page: it makes much more sense for this information to be on the main Stewart Copeland page then relegated to its own separate page. I think there is also some confusing with the graffiti artists Klark Kent, which merging pages would help alleviate. Drewcifer (talk) 15:41, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
