Infobox

[edit]
  • The single cover image requires an alt description, but since this is more of a pic of the single, a caption will have to do, so please add one
Added. —Ojorojo (talk) 17:23, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Lead

[edit]
  • Please insert "recorded" in between "a song" and "by American rock and roll pioneer..."
Done, but with "written" and used "recorded" with date. —Ojorojo (talk) 17:23, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Did this song reach the record charts? I'm asking this because it sounds like you're inferring that, yet there's no "Charts" section
Added text with source in "Release and reception" to support "none of his various recordings reached the record charts" in lead (seems appropriate, since there are no charts). —Ojorojo (talk) 17:23, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Background and lyrics

[edit]

Paragraph 2

[edit]
  • I don't think mentioning the lyrics part from "I walked forty-seven miles..." To "Who do you love?" Is necessary; I'd remove it
Incorporated some into the text with refs instead. —Ojorojo (talk) 17:23, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Composition and recording

[edit]

Paragraph 2

[edit]
  • "Bo Diddley's characteristic sound processing effects are on display -- echoey vocal and tremolo-laden rhythm electric guitar." --> "Bo Diddley's characteristic sound processing effects are on display, accompanied by echoey vocals and a tremolo-laden rhythm electric guitar."
Clarified – the effects are used on the vocal and guitar. —Ojorojo (talk) 17:23, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Release and reception

[edit]
  • All great!

Renditions

[edit]

Ronnie Hawkins and the Hawks

[edit]
  • "Except near the border in the Great Lakes area, the record was largely unnoticed in the US and did not appear on the Billboard charts." --> Unsourced
Added RS. —Ojorojo (talk) 17:23, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Except near the border in the Great Lakes area, the record was largely unnoticed in the US and did not appear on the Billboard charts." --> Remove "in the US" as mentioning it near the Great Lakes area already speaks of the United States
Done. —Ojorojo (talk) 17:23, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Quicksilver Messenger Service

[edit]
  • Fantastic work!

George Thorogood and the Destroyers

[edit]
  • Please add the release year after the album name Move It on Over in parentheses
Added (& removed from the beginning of the sentence). —Ojorojo (talk) 17:23, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Recognition and legacy

[edit]
  • It must have peaked at number five, not 105, as the Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart is only 25 positions and serves as an extension to the Hot 100; however, it doesn't necessarily mean 105, although it's implied
The actual chart begins at number 101 (and ends at 130).[1] I think we should stay with the source. —Ojorojo (talk) 17:23, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
