From Talk:Bonus track

not essentially different to the other album tracks

Removed the italicised piece (instead of rewriting) because I couldn't parse the intended meaning:

"In contrast to hidden tracks, bonus tracks are included on track listings and are not essentially different to the other album tracks"

Perhaps I'm being dense tonite. If someone can make sense of it, maybe restore using clearer language? edgarde 03:44, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

lists is pointless

Unwieldy, useless lists do not aid understanding.

If the following information is valuable, consider making a Category: Albums with bonus tracks, probably as a subcategory of Category:Albums, and tagging those albums with this tag. --edgarde 04:24, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

cd single bonus tracks

It's becoming a matter of history in the download age, but I've found people increasingly refer to the additional tracks on CD singles as "bonus tracks" rather than the traditional phrase "b-sides", since of course they are on the same side of the disk. Should we add "...or CD singles" to the end of the first sentence?—Preceding unsigned comment added by PRL1973 (talk • contribs) 07:51, 11 May 205

"I've found people increasingly..." is original research — unless you can find a source for this, it should not be used. Otherwise another editor will add "My brother calls every album track after the first a 'bonus track' so that should be included as well", or some similarly questionable usage.
When 7" singles were still the norm, the common usage (at least in the UK) was that the B side of a 7" was called, well, the "B side", and additional tracks, included ONLY on 12" or CD (or sometimes cassette) singles, were called "bonus tracks". -81.170.64.41 (talk) 14:45, 9 January 2010 (UTC)


Besides, I think this article is about an existing concept within the music industry — if some consumers use the term differently, it might be considered of simply a mistake. / edgarde 14:40, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

mistaken identity

i have this twin thet i have never met befor and i whant to kowe who she or he is if i can find them she has been wandiring if —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.181.90.67 (talk) 21:45, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

history

Idea for continuation of the article: When was the first bonus track appended to an album? Who was responsible?

I don't know. That would be intresting to find out and include in the article. Although i don't know it, i do know a few things that could be deemed early:

  1. The Jackson 5 - Diana Ross Presents the Jackson 5 (1969): "Reach Out, I'll Be There" on early issues
  2. The Clash - London Calling (1979): "Train in Vain" was added to the album as the last minute (but uncredited)
  3. The Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967): The strange "Sgt. Pepper Inner Groove" noise was on UK copies but not on American copies

But as the CD age came in, their was

  1. Michael Jackson - Bad (1987): 1987 CD copies came with the bonus track "Leave Me Alone"
  2. Many hidden tracks were only on certian copies of the album (for example, Nirvana - In Utero (1993) included a non-US bonus track as a hidden track).

So the first bonnus track is a real mystery. But it would be good to find out --213.83.125.225 (talk) 08:56, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

yes --77.99.231.37 (talk) 18:00, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

Why?

Why is it that there are Japanese bonus tracks? --Abdull (talk) 18:09, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

Lyrics

I heard another reason import CDs are more expensive is because there are translated lyrics so the listener can understand the music better. I have the Japanese version of Barenaked Ladies' Maroon album. What's weird is that the bonus track's lyrics are in Engrish and not Japanese. Maybe they couldn't figure out the meaning of the song and they just decided to use English lyrics, but it's weird. On another note, usually the bonus tracks on import versions can be found on certain US singles for the album. For example, the USA single for Sting's "If I Ever Lose My Faith In You" contains "Everybody Laughed But You". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Doommaster1994 (talk • contribs) 23:42, 4 August 2014 (UTC)


From Talk:Solo album

Beatles solo release dates

I've changed the (uncited) assertion that "all four members of the Beatles released solo albums while the group was still together" to "three of the four members of the Beatles..." because Paul McCartney infamously made the initial public statement that the Beatles were no longer together in the press release for his first album, McCartney. (John, George, and Ringo did all release legit solo works before this happened.) It's possible that the writer was thinking of Paul's 1966 score to The Family Way, but as that article notes, it's not really considered a Beatles solo effort since Paul doesn't perform on it.

From Talk:Tribute album

Comment

I removed the inclusion of the Neil Young tribute album The Bridge under benefits for the artist--proceeds from that album went to a school, not to Young himself (who hardly needs the money). Brettalan (talk) 05:54, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

I think this page should be sorted by the categories in the intro--Alcuin 03:21, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

The "List of tribute albums" should DEFINATELY be a category, rather than this. Foolish Child 21:48, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Iced Earth

Iced Earth's album Tribute To The Gods (is the only one I noticed, there are probably more) should be noted separate from the regular Tribute Albums, because it's not various artists making a tribute to one artist, is the exact opposite —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.53.8.210 (talk) 17:16, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Caruso

The Caruso example is nice (although more specific context about the "tribute" nature of the recordings would be helpful), but the sound samples really don't belong here as they relate only tangentially to the subject of the article and take up a big block of space right at the beginning of the page. I am removing them from this page; they are already contained in the I Pagliacci article. InnocuousPseudonym (talk) 05:25, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Where the Pyramid Meets the Eye

was the first tribute album, to my knowledge —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.125.110.223 (talk) 20:08, 28 January 2008 (UTC)


Disambiguation

I think this article should have a link at the top saying 'for the Ozzy Osbourne live album, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tribute_%28album%29' but my html skills suck, anyone care to take the initiative?81.103.177.191 (talk) 17:21, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Huh

Why doesn't this article mention albums recorded by a single artist with songs by his or her favorite artists? I'm sure this counts are tribute album as well. Netrat (talk) 22:25, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
