Misleading information edit
This entire page reads like a booking agent's bio. None of the other ex-Raiders, not even Mark Lindsay, or Freddy Weller - the country singer - have wiki pages this detailed. Is there really that much interest in the general public about a guy who was in the Raiders for only 2 & 1/2 years over 50 years ago? The second Brotherhood album, “Friendsound/Joyride (1969), features one of the first uses of the Moog synthesizer on a rock album.
This should probably be removed as the Monkees' tune "Daily Nightly" released in 1967 is popularly regarded as the first use of a Moog on a rock album. This info is from Wikipedia's page on that song. The Byrds also used synthesized sounds on "C.T.A. 102" which was released in 1967 also. I'm not clear if the Byrds song was a Moog or not, but Roger - then Jim - McGuinn was an early user of Moog.THX1136 (talk) 21:11, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
- I think you'd be hard pressed to hear any moog on that album. Certainly none is credited on the sleeve. Not even a generic "keyboards". All we have is piano, organ and "prepared piano" (echoed wire stumming). Although "Console" and "Control console effects" both sound a bit mysterious, I'd always put that down to essentially mixing desk effects. So, unless a very good source can be found, I'd agree to remove that statement. Martinevans123 (talk) 21:47, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
Thank you for your suggestions. I agree that in light of the research you both did, the statement should be removed and I have done that. MommieOD (talk) 21:31, 15 July 2013 (UTC)MommieOD
Jehovah's Witness edit
Re this edit with edit summary "Phil was baptized as a JW in 1970 and there is a source to verify it". Do we have access to that source? The one currently this. But I can't find any mention of the JWs anywhere at Volk's website, certainly not on that page. Could someone point it out and correct the source? Regards.
