Untitled[edit]

Why is the fact that The Prodigy sampled one of his songs in the first paragraph of his bio? This seems like trivia, rather than one of the first things one should know about this artist. --Ordidijustblowyourmind 03:25, 17 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Prodigy wording now moved to a more 'suitable' position in the article.

Why is 'Reconstruction' regarded as a weak effort? The UK 'consumer goods testing' magazine in 1978 (?December issue?) had a recommendation for reggae LPs; Max Romeo featured twice, for 'War in a Babylon' and 'Reconstruction'. Personally, 'Reconstruction' took longer to fully enjoy, but has also lasted better over time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.99.56.52 (talk) 00:31, 30 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Section[edit]

Can I proffer that the 'Concerts' section does not represent typical encyclopedic matter, and belongs elsewhere.

Derek R Bullamore (talk) 23:22, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I had moved the concert section from its own article because it was so small and this too was also a small article so it did not need its own article. But now that I think about it I do not think it belongs here either, so the information should be removed. Aspects (talk) 21:24, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
