1014:. I'm almost done the review. Thanks for changing the bit about Yoko Ono. What you have now is definitely better than before, but I wonder whether it is still too negative. By contrasting "constant presence" with "creative freedom and camaraderie he had recently enjoyed" this implies that her presence was "objectively negative". If you would consider my suggestion ""the perceived intrusive presence " this clarifies that it was Harrison's (and perhaps McCartney's and Starr's) take on her presence. If it had been other people in the studio with her, it's very conceivable that not all of them would have had the same reaction. In any case, it is safer to keep it more neutral.
728:, which redirects to "Country blues". CB seems to be a catch-all for pre-WWII acoustic blues, with FB more associated with the 1950s–1960s revival movement. IMM is a more ambitious song that alternates between rockish waltz-time verses and a fairly straight blues rock chorus, which is more how the second genre ref (Andrew Hickey) describes it: "waltz-cum-hard-rock hybrid". Ian MacDonald describes it as a "Gallic waltz (complete with Piaf wobble) against a clamorous blues shuffle". I'd like to remove "folk blues", but it needs something more than just "hard rock" for a genre. There is a mention of ballad (Alan Smith). Any ideas? —

Paul McCartney, and the constant presence of Lennon's girlfriend, avant-garde artist Yoko Ono, created an atmosphere that contrasted sharply with the camaraderie and artistic freedom he had recently enjoyed with Bob Dylan and the Band in upstate New York." I wonder if that happens to lessen your concerns also? Because, Yoko herself is no longer being compared directly with the positive, liberating elements; instead her presence is part of an atmosphere that, for
Harrison, contrasts so unfavourably with his recent experiences in update NY. Any good?

Reading it again (and again), what strikes me is an awkwardness in the phrasing – what it needs is possibly a mention of the two issues "creating" something rather than in themselves "contrasting sharply with" anything. Maybe something like: "For
Harrison, the power struggle between John Lennon and
1029:
But don't you think that "For
Harrison" makes it clear that we're merely reporting what he felt, rather than judging Ono in Knowledge (XXG)'s voice? Plus it follows Harrison's recollection that "There was a lot of trivia and games being played", which invites some elaboration and flags it for the

Yeah, I thought I'd seen Hickey's books on Davies and Brian Wilson used here. Personally, I wouldn't make a point of raising him as an item for discussion as a non-RS, but it's up to you. I'm just wary of the blanket decisions that are made when, perhaps, Andrew Hickey might be recognised as an

I did a couple of searches and agree that "Rock" is probably the way to go. I'll replace the genres with "Rock" and remove the refs. Change as you see fit. Hickey is quoted in several Kinks and Beach Boys WP articles, including GAs. Maybe he should be discussed for possible addition to the

In the documentary Let It Be, Lennon likes the song, and begins waltzing with Yoko Ono to it... So while Lennon wasn't nessecarily there at the final recording, he was at least aware of the song and approved of it... If anyone can think of a way to fit that into the article, go ahead.

I came across this while going through some
Infoboxes with folk-related genres. The infobox genre ref (Alan W. Pollack) describes it as "an interesting folk/blues stylistic hybrid with more than just a touch of the hard rocking waltz beat." I don't think this can be described by
