Surely From Langley Park To Memphis is PS's most successful album, not Jordan?
How could there possibly be a Prefab Sprout article that doesn't mention King Of Rock And Roll, perhaps the only song that anybody actually remembers them for? WMarsh 02:52, 27 November 2002 (UTC)
Why has the The Best Of - A Life Of Surprises (1992) been totally ignored? Has the whole article written by an American, where presumably it was not released?
- Most of the above appears to have been covered in the most recent version of this article (and it's associates).

[edit] Neutral POV
Okay, I love, LOVE, L-U-V Prefab Sprout. -I- think they are one of the most original acts to come out of the 1980s. That's what _I_ think. However, why do we have to persist with these pop music-related articles on WikiPedia, with the combination review/fan-boy gush/mash note treatment?
"Considered by many to be one of the best..." blahblahblah. How many is "many?" Yeah, count me in that number, but the VAST majority of folks have never heard of these guys. Sure, that's their loss, but can we POSSIBLY stick to facts in this, and other articles, regarding the acts, artists and personalities?
I say this while listening to my favorite of their albums "Jordan: The Comeback," an exquisite work fraught with so much cleverness that my iPod can't contain it all. Yeah, that's my OPINION, but not one iota of fact therein. Nothing I've written would belong in that article.
Get a clue, folks. B. Polhemus (talk) 17:04, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Langleypark.jpg
Image:Langleypark.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 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 23:00, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
