Talk:I Hear You Knocking

The Fabulous Thunderbirds

I removed The Fabulous Thunderbirds (1981) from the listing of bands who have covered the Bartholomew / King classic "I Hear You Knockin'." The song which is on the Fab. Birds 1981 album Butt Rockin' is not the same song. The version on their album was penned by producer and songwriter J.D. Miller. See: http://www.discogs.com/artist/J.D.+Miller

Lazy Lester song

Lazy Lester recorded a different "I Hear You Knockin'" in 1959 (Excello 2155), credited to J. D. "Jay" Miller. His song has been recorded by several artists, including the Fabulous Thunderbirds and Canned Heat. Removed these from the "Versions" section. -Ojorojo (talk) 19:56, 25 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Dave Edmunds

I would argue that the Dave Edmunds version is new wave, not roots rock. The Mo-Ja'al (talk) 05:22, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You need a reliable source to promote that claim. See WP:V for further information. Thanks, - Derek R Bullamore (talk) 13:03, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Dave Edmunds single cover

The image of the 7" single cover is of the German release, as shown at discogs.com here. There is another image at eBay here. The source for the current image at rateyourmusic.com is this, but it does it give any country of release. But as rateyourmusic.com fails WP:RS at WP:NOTRSMUSIC anyway, there is an argument the image itself should not be shown? Martinevans123 (talk) 14:46, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If there is no reliable source that specifically states "German release", then it shouldn't be added as a caption. If the sleeve itself actually lists the country, then that could be cited using {{Cite AV media notes}}. Otherwise, using an image that shows the artist's name and song title(s) without stating the country should be OK ("self-captioning", see MOS:CAPTION, MOS:CAPOBVIOUS). Before adding sources, checking to see if they are on the list of "Generally unreliable sources" (WP:NOTRSMUSIC) might avoid having to repeat this again (and again and again ...) BTW, I don't see MVD Entertainment Group as one of Edmunds' official record labels. —Ojorojo (talk) 15:38, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

MVD Entertainment Group must have some copyright rights to this music? Or is there a Wikipedia policy somewhere that provides an assessment of which are an artist's "official record labels" and which are not? Perhaps Wikipedia also has access to YouTube's copyright compliance policies as, without knowing these, how is it possible to make an informed judgement?
