Non-editable parts need correction

edit

Some of the page numbers given here seem not to be editable. There are places that say "pp. 8" or the like, where it says "pp" when only one page is mentioned. The standard practice is "p." for just one page and "pp." for more than one. Someone who wrote the non-editable parts didn't know that. Michael Hardy (talk) 21:10, 4 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

OK, I've figured out the obnoxious cryptic system. "Obnoxious" is really the right word; obviously a not-so-editor-hostile way of doing things is needed. Michael Hardy (talk) 21:17, 4 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

During the reflux of the British Blues Invasion, when US blues players came to the other side of the pond, where they achieved far more respect and attention than at home, it was noticed that many an artist who was fond of strong liquour, also preferred to have some milk along, because that caramel tasting way of drinking bourbon left them feeling better the next day. Hence the phrase, Milk and Alcohol. it's the bluesman's food: milk and alcohol. 2A02:8388:6700:4A80:D27E:35FF:FE3A:DC34 (talk) 09:33, 7 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

Paraphrasing a part of the "Impact" section: Despite the band continuing to play the song live, it started to get forgotten. It was then rediscovered because... the band was still playing it live.

???

This part needs some work, or maybe should be edited out entirely. Jules TH 16 (talk) 15:44, 31 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
