- Hi again, I'll review this one. FunkMonk (talk) 11:42, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- Hello again, thanks for taking it (so soon as well)! Best, yeepsi (Talk tonight) 15:44, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- The lead needs to be longer.
- I'll do this last, as I might or might not add/find some more sources while fixing the problems. Best, yeepsi (Talk tonight) 15:44, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

- The first half of "recording" is about the musical composition itself, so it seems misplaced.
- "An earlier, longer recording" Earlier version? It isn't made clear that it is the same song until the end of the sentence.
- Barrett is mentioned out of the blue, with no wikilink, full name, or anything.
- Likewise, Waters' role in the band should be mentioned first time he appears.
- Mason also pops in out of nowhere, with no link, full name, or anything.
- Also, Smith is mentioned, but full name, role and link only comes further down, it should be included at first mention.
- There is no citation for the last sentence in the composition section.
- Will try to find a ref. Best, yeepsi (Talk tonight) 15:58, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- "The soundtrack for Tonite Let's All Make Love in London (released in 1968)[nb 5] includes an edited version of the recording and two reprises of it." Of which recording? The last version mentioned?
- "After recording session for Piper were over, Pink Floyd once played a 30 minute version of "Interstellar Overdrive"." What is the purpose of the word "once" here?
- " version of "Interstellar Overdrive" was cut from the Ummagumma live album." Did it surface anywhere else?
- I think it surfaced on YouTube first, then on bootlegs (I might have it the other way 'round...). I have been thinking about previously, but I don't think citing YouTube in this case would make it reliable. What do you think? Best, yeepsi (Talk tonight) 15:58, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- "moe. on their live album Dr. Stan's Prescription, Volume 1." Clarify that they covered it on their album. This fragmentary writing is also used in other examples from that section, should be elaborated.
- Since you cite different pages of the same book, a citation style like that seen in for example Pink Floyd would be better. There, the pages are listed separately from the books, so that the whole citation isn't repeated without end.
- "While attempting to get the band a record deal, Joe Boyd returned (and produced) with the group to Sound Techniques studios,[31][32] to record a demo tape to be given to various record labels, one of the songs recorded was "Interstellar Overdrive".[32]" Sentence too long, break up.
Done and clarified above, apart from one. Best, yeepsi (Talk tonight) 15:58, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- It is certainly shaping up. One more thing "The original version" is mentioned, but that should be changed to the "album version", as the "original" would surely be the first released longer version? FunkMonk (talk) 18:54, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
Done Just gotta do lead tomorrow, and then that should be all the issues fixed. Best, yeepsi (Talk tonight) 22:53, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
- All issues fixed now. Best, yeepsi (Talk tonight) 08:43, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
- Looks nice now, passed! Nice to see some good classic songs be nominated, instead of all the contemporary crap that populates the song nom section. FunkMonk (talk) 14:16, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks! Yeah, you and me both. Best, yeepsi (Talk tonight) 14:34, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
