Fair use rationale for Image:LALightCover.jpg

Image:LALightCover.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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 00:01, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Article rewrite

I was bold and changed the article around substantially. Feel free to revert if the original version is preferred. My workbook for these changes is here, if you want to have a look. MookieZ (talk) 18:12, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Bruce's return to the fold

While this album did lead to Bruce Johnston's return to the band, it was not his first contribution since his 1972 departure. I own a CD two-fer of "15 Big Ones" and "Love You," and the booklet contains photocopies of the original liner notes and credits. Bruce is credited as a backing vocalist on "For Once in My Life," the last track on "15 Big Ones." I'm sure there's more-concrete evidence out there than just my word, and I know you need more-concrete evidence to change it; I'm just letting you know what I've read. (I think he may have also guested on other BBs songs in the interim.) MCM0313 (talk) 03:17, 29 April 2012 (UTC)

Genre

Can someone provide me a reason as to how this record does not fit the following genre descriptors: rock, pop and disco. Rock and pop are present on every track, and the disco song "Here Comes The Night" takes up one quarter of the run time.

Those genres descriptions are in many published reviews and retrospective pieces on this album, including liner notes on reissues of the album. Can someone provide an argument as to why these genres are not applicable? If they are not, what genre would be applicable? I can hear an argument for soft-rock certainly, if we want to discuss subgenre. Caseyehard (talk) 01:46, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

Add any genre that is cited to a reliable source, preferably more than one--re: AllMusic, only the staff-written bios and reviews are allowed, not the user-generated stuff. The album is rock and pop--that's hardly controversial--you just need to cite it appropriately and explicitly. Caro7200 (talk) 15:52, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
