lineup are deceased and it would be difficult obtaining PD images of them together, it can be used to illustrate their ages when beginning the band, it's of a small size and low quality, etc. If we can find an image definitely deemed PD/CC then I am in favor of including it. If not, I feel it is important to keep the image -- after all, this was the Allman BROTHERS band, and half the images around are from recent years.

I removed the "first" as that is implied in the word "discovered". But then the phrase looks a bit stark, a bit empty, and also a little vague. I looked in the nearest cited source text for the original wording, and it doesn't appear there. The nearest I can find is 481: 461: 42: 188:
there is a lot of copy-editing to be done I may suggest getting a copy-editor (on the basis that a fresh set of eyes is helpful). Anything more significant than minor improvements I will raise here. I see the reviewer's role as collaborative and collegiate, so I welcome discussion regarding interpretation of the criteria.
952:: "It was thirteen-year-old Gregg who first brought music into the Allmans' Daytona, Florida, household when Geraldine bought him a Sears Silvertone guitar." Could we tighten that phrase up a bit? Or even drop it altogether, as the important part, that G. Allman was given a guitar, is in the very next sentence. 1063:
Here is a fun debate! I don't mind either. To me, using "southern rock," no capitalization, looks good in a sentence while the alternative doesn't. But at the same time, Southern rock seems to only refer to the Southern U.S., and I feel like it should always be capitalized. What's your say on it? I'm

section is rather long. If a link is felt to be important, then it is generally felt that mention of the topic would be made in a comprehensive article, with an appropriate link at the point of mention; and that once mentioned in the main text, there is no need to repeat in the See also section. This

The song samples are well chosen to represent three distinct influences on the band's music style; however, while the songs are mentioned in the text, and the music styles the songs represent are mentioned, there isn't a direct correlation between the two, except in the captions to the samples. The

The image from 1972 is taken from a magazine ad, which was published with no copyright notice. I have little deep experience in copyright, but at the same time, I can think of numerous reasons why a small-sized file of the original and most famous lineup of the band is fair use: two members of that

I really tend to prefer strict, three-paragraph leads. I understand for tons of articles it can't work, but for something like a band or song or album, I'm really into having a standard three paragraph section. All that said, I think the lead works perfectly as is. It doesn't go too far into detail
578:
The article meets MoS. The lead is a little sparse, given the richness of detail of the main body, but it does provide a summary of the contents. Consideration could be given, as part of ongoing development, to enriching the details in the lead. There is some pinching of text between images in the

This is a very fine article. I have quibbles over the copyright status of the lead image, and if all the captions are appropriately concise; other than that, the article meets GA criteria. Putting on hold for these minor issues to be addressed. Points for ongoing development are raised above - in

I'll start reading over the next few days and then begin to make comments. I am normally a slow reviewer - if that is likely to be a problem, please let me know as soon as possible. I tend to directly do copy-editing and minor improvements as I'm reading the article rather than list them here; if
973:
I see what you mean. The most important thing is that the two brothers grew up together in Daytona, and I've tightened it up a bit to reflect that. You're right, we jump into the guitar business in the next sentence, I see no need to hop in early on that.
1078:
Sources I looked at when doing background reading appeared to be mostly using Southern rock. The house style on Knowledge (XXG) is not to capitalise points of the compass, but as in this instance the Southern refers to

While I am not so keen on this -- I feel it's making the musical section longer than it needs to be -- I'll concede the point, it would offer more than the captions would. I've updated the article accordingly.

I don't think it is, as there are comparable free images from this era; I've picked an expired copyright one on Commons from 1972, which shows the original lineup bar Duane who had died the previous year.

is sufficient. Has this been looked over by someone with experience in copyright? If not, then I think that would be needed in order for the article to be listed with that image in place.

You could try asking the folks at the official website if they have an image they'd be willing to let you use under an appropriate licence. Anyway, for now, I'm listing. Well done.

Hahah, no it isn't, that must have been something added after I left. The Simpsons has referenced a LOT of things, doesn't mean it needs to be pointed out on each page. Removed!

Copied the timeline you mentioned to the article. I have little experience with timelines, so I am not one for adding clickable links -- someone else can hah.

particular there are some web links that need updating, and the lead would benefit from enriching to a commensurate level with the main body.

caption comment may well be enough; however, I see no harm, and some benefit, from repeating the same information in the main body.

Is the "Simpson Safari" sentence really needed? And if it is, then it should be referenced.

Addressed these concerns -- I agree, I tend to have a tendency for verbose captions, haha.
