Question[edit]

Do we all agree that this and Long Live Rock and Roll are heavy metal albums? If so I will add it as a genre. Rockgenre (talk) 03:24, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not a chat room and personal opinions are not allowed here. 142.167.163.133 (talk) 10:35, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I thought we had to get a majority in favor of something? Half of my sources were removed because a majority was not on my side on other pages. Rockgenre (talk)Rockgenre 23:51, 16 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

From a strictly musical point of view, I do not think this album can be considered heavy metal. Fp cassini (talk) 05:05, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I think it should stay. Definitely has some heavy metal elements here, but not progressive rock. Why is that there?108.81.33.59 (talk) 03:33, 25 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Addition[edit]

I came across this page looking to see whether or not Hammerfall's version of this song was the original version. Consequently I looked at the Cover subtitle, and their version is not there, which is popular. I think it should be added to this page to make it more accurate.

what exactly are you talking about here? this page is the talk page for Rainbow`s debut album. Fp cassini (talk) 04:39, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

article opens with prominent mystery quote[edit]

a long quote featured at beginning of encyclopedia article needs attribution! without it this article is funny in a Spinal Tap sort of way. kind of appropriate, i guess! Fp cassini (talk) 04:44, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
