[edit] Untitled

I deleted the statement that "Memo From Turner" could be the first rock music video of all time, since it pre-dated MTV by 15 years. "Memo From Turner" was pre-dated the videos The Beatles made for Strawberry Fields Forever and Penny Lane. My name's Nathan

Yes, fine, who cares, but you deleted any reference to Memo from Turner. Please put it back. People have been doing "musical numbers" for a looong time; doesn't really matter whether you think or I think one or the other one "could be" (note the weasel wording) the primordial one.

I think there are three minor misquotes in the paragraph referring to BAD's 'E=MC2':

"Putting a little stick about. Putting the fire into those flash little twerps" should be "...Putting the frighteners on flash little twerps" (?)

"I like a bit of a cavort, I don't send 'em solicitor's letters. I apply a bit of pressure." s/b "...I don't send 'em solicitous letters..."

"The man's dead, and who's left holding the sodding baby?" s/b "At the death, who's left holding the sodding baby?"

I haven't corrected, just in case I've misheard. --Grimbleshanks 13:50, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

"Wake Up Niggers (or you're all through)" is a very early rap song by The Last Poets. Richard8081 09:20, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

The gangsters are openly gay; eg Harry Flowers saying "My bath is ready," and Harry's earlier chiding about Chaz and Joey being "double personal"; this should be added to the list of things that in 1970 or so made the release of Performance problematic and kept down the box office. There's nothing graphic, but this was back when nothing was everything.Richard8081 09:20, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Plot summary rewrite

I'm going to rewrite this plot summary (have already started). If anyone minds, please say so now. Thanks.--TEHodson 01:53, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
