Mark! Original research or not, that's a good job by you! I wish i had a direct line to Robin Trower like you. (In fact, I'm going to see him play, yet again, tomorrow night in Philadelphia ( 3/12/08).) There must be some way you can post that Bridge of Sighs info in the article.

This sentence strikes me as not up to standards: "The album may have been named after the Bridge of Sighs in Venice, Italy"........as this is an encyclopedia, was it or wasn't it? Rodney420 (talk) 15:00, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Robin Trower sez

Okay, this is original research, so I can't post it in the article, but I sent Robin Trower's agent the question and here is the exchange:

here's the answer from Robin himself


Hi Derek The answer to the Bridge of Sighs question is Yes and No! One day reading the sports pages of the newspaper there was a headline saying Bridge of Sighs to win................. Obviously the horse was named after the bridge in Venice but when I saw the headline, I immediately thought what a great song title that would be. Cheers for now. r.

Greetings!

There is a question on the Wikipedia site about Robin's album "Bridge of Sighs" as to whether it was or wasn't named for the bridge in Venice, Italy with the same name. Could you tell me if it is so?

Many thanks!

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Trower Bridge of Sighs.jpg

Image:Trower Bridge of Sighs.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
