Which Winnetka?

[edit]

Is the song's title a reference to Winnetka, Illinois, or to Winnetka, Los Angeles, California?


Winnetka, Illinois. My mother and her noisy friends were the nightclub fans about whom the tune was written and named.Mollyfeng (talk) 03:02, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

i would like to add another cover version of Big Noise from Winnetka by myself which is even for sale on ebay etc

[edit]

Please could you add some of the following to your Wikipedia:

1965: Howie G Conder - Howard Conder on drums and some members of the Riot Squad with Mitch Mitchell on Tambourine, - recorded in Regent Sound, Denmark Street, London, engineer: Bill Farley, - 7" Single

more info: We were recording for a client as session musicians and we had ten mins at the end so i asked the guys to make this track. It was put down as ´live´in one take and then I took it to Fontana Records and they released it in 1965

Here is a link to one for sale: http://www.retrobloke.com/more/on/details/020138Thanks, Howard Conder — Preceding unsigned comment added by Howardconder111 (talkcontribs) 17:04, 7 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

At best, I think it's marginal. It's a primary source with no evidence of notability, but that wouldn't prevent adding one line to an existing article. Is there any evidence that this particular cover of this particular song is in any way significant? How do its sales compare with those of the other covers? Wikipedia isn't a repository of everything; listing every cover of every notable song would make the articles tedious without adding much value.

trying to learn how to best engage and improve certain items in Wikipedia so please consider adding to Big Noise from Winnetka hopefully a more compliant submission

1965: Howie G Conder - 7" Single - Catalogue Number : Fontana Records TF 613

I also added to the links section:

As this record was actually released as can be seen from the above link, will this suffice as proof, thereby qualified to be included as a bona fida submission ???Howard Conder (talk) 11:50, 10 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Hey guys, dont bother putting this up as Philip says, its not that significant.... Mitch Mitchell was only a friend and one of the best drummers from the UK if not in the world. At least Jimmy Hendricks thought so. There is a book coming out next year where all this trivia is coming out anyway so will keep it for then.Howard Conder (talk) 20:44, 10 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
