2 questions 1) did mr flectcher play on studio tracks(like generally)
2) does he play live (like on 101 for example) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.71.29.127 ( talk) 14:10, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
The article says Fletch sang backing vocals on "Barrell of a Gun" and "Sun and the Rainfall". Is there sources for these claims?
ah right,thanks
The article states that he plays the bass on "Songs Of Faith And Devotion" which he does not. If you watch the documentary "We Were Going to Live Together, Record Together and it Was Going to be Wonderful" on the 2006 re-release it states that Alan Wilder plays the bass. Andy Fletcher was absent from much of the recording and only contributed (in one way or another) to the three songs recorded in Madrid. So please, change the article. 10:23, 15 July 2009 (DRF) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.186.252.183 ( talk)
The documentary mentions Alan Wilder playing the bass when they were jamming to get basic ideas for the tracks, it does not say much about who did what on the actual recordings (except for the obvious Alan being on drums).
Sorry for my revert. Andy Fletcher's death is confirmed on https://www.facebook.com/depechemode - R.I.P. -- Gabbahead. ( talk) 19:23, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
The band was not down to three people (Gahan, Gore, and Fletcher) at that time. Alan Wilder was still in the band and would not leave until a year after the tour had concluded, on June 1, 1995. The tensions experienced during that tour, and the unfair distribution of work (the bulk of which fell on Wilder due to his musical proficiency and strength in studio production, as well as the personal issues plaguing the other three members at the time) contributed to him leaving. 173.48.65.104 ( talk) 23:25, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
It's been confirmed by Gareth Jones himself here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xmir31PsDPs Shinobiiii ( talk) 23:35, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
