Too many genres edit

I think Hard rock and blues rock is enough to cover it and people will get the point. 2602:306:8B83:4860:58D:190C:D4F2:3950 (talk) 01:55, 22 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

Harmonica edit

There's a harmonica solo in "Waiting for the Bus". Who plays it? -lifeform (talk) 05:19, 22 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Billy Gibbons plays harmonica (and fiddle) on Tejas, so I've always assumed it was him. The original vinyl record sleeve has no musician credits at all. Martinevans123 (talk) 12:18, 22 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
So why have we now got James Harman credited on two tracks?? As far as I know, there is no harmonica at all on "Jesus Just Left Chicago". Martinevans123 (talk) 20:13, 28 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
I've fixed it. Harman played on the live version of both songs on their 2016 live album, but he didn't work with the band until 1996. Jules TH 16 (talk) 20:56, 1 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Terry Manning edit

My 1973 vinyl cover just says: "Thanks to ROBIN BRYAN / BRIAN STUDIO and TERRY MANNING / ARDENT STUDIO". It doesn't say who engineered which tracks and where. Similarly with allmusic.com. Anyone got any better sources? Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 22:49, 16 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

According to Manning's own forum posts, he wasn't there during the initial tracking phase and only became involved with overdubbing and editing.Jules TH 16 (talk) 20:56, 1 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
Ok, well I guess that's as good as we're gonna get. Martinevans123 (talk) 21:03, 1 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
In case you want an actual quote, here's him saying it. So, Brian was recording engineer, and Terry did additional recording and mixing. https://repforums.prosoundweb.com/index.php/topic,5576.msg52785.html#msg52785 Jules TH 16 (talk) 21:19, 16 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
Haha yes, I'd seen that before with regards to the segue between "Jesus Just Left Chicago" and "Waitin For The Bus". We already have the PRW forum as a source in the article (although we probably shouldn't). Martinevans123 (talk) 21:27, 16 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
