Review by LunaEatsTuna: article is problem-free (well cited, neutral, long enough prose, earwig says plagiarism free, etc.) and the hook is factual and interesting. Can confirm the source as I have access to the book, and for those without access the fact is subject to a 1999 news article by Rolling Stone. This is just personal taste, but perhaps the hook could be changed to say "was the first album by a major artist" instead of repeating "major" twice? LunaEatsTuna (talk) 17:48, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
