RE: Instant Vintage
[edit]For older albums, I usually use Google's archive search and books search, such as "Instant Vintage" Saadiq at GoogleBooks and the same terms searched through GoogleNews (with the "search tools" settings set to either "archives" or "custom range", being the time around the album's release/reception, etc.) The page at Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums has useful information on writing album articles in general, particularly the style guide for such articles. I worked on articles for Raphael Saadiq's subsequent albums; The Way I See It passed FA, so that could be a point of reference, although not all articles have the same information available to them, so external consistency among articles should not be a priority.
