• Do mention "See for Miles Records" in the lead.

• "which he had recorded in the late 1970s and early 1980s" - a little too off-topic for the lead of an article of this size.

• "did not sell well" - "did not perform well".

• Is it possible to include the comment of Fay's father in the article?
  • I'm not quite sure what you mean here - could you clarify that please? Thanks! — sparklism ^hey! 20:01, 29 October 2015 (UTC) reply
    • "The album's title is derived from the song "Cosmic Concerto (Life Is People)", which refers to a comment made to Fay by his father during a childhood visit to the seaside." - so, can we have the original comment in the article? Yash! 05:02, 30 October 2015 (UTC) reply
      • Ah, I see. Well, the source doesn't actually contain Fay's father's quote, it simply says "When I was on holidays with my dad as a kid, we'd sit in seaside cafes and he'd watch people walking by. ... He was astonished at it and he would say, 'Life is people.'" - I've had a go at expanding the text slightly, how's that? — sparklism ^hey! 11:45, 30 October 2015 (UTC) reply
• "was premiered on " - "premiered on"

• A brief summary of what "Médecins Sans Frontières" does would be good for the prose.
  • I had a bash at this - how's that? — sparklism ^hey! 20:00, 29 October 2015 (UTC) reply
    • Awesome! Yash! 05:02, 30 October 2015 (UTC) reply
• Link Neil McCormick.
  • YDone — sparklism ^hey! 19:47, 29 October 2015 (UTC) reply
• Link Pitchfork
  • It's already linked in a previous section, so doesn't need linking again per WP:REPEATLINK. — sparklism ^hey! 19:47, 29 October 2015 (UTC) reply
    • Missed that! Yash! 05:02, 30 October 2015 (UTC) reply
• "Pitchfork" should be italicized if I am not missing anything.
  • YDone — sparklism ^hey! 19:47, 29 October 2015 (UTC) reply
• I am not entirely sure if Prefix magazine is a reliable source.
  • Wow, I am amazed to report that it's not included at WP:ALBUMS/SOURCES, but it wouldn't be the first time that a perfectly usable site has been overlooked. I'll start a discussion there to see if the community think it should be included (personally, I think it should). In the meantime, here is a short biography of the guy who wrote the review - I'm guessing the review counts as a reliable source in this case. What do you think? — sparklism ^hey! 19:55, 29 October 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Yes, it does. Having a look again, and at the bio, this should count as a RS. Yash! 05:02, 30 October 2015 (UTC) reply
• Use "National Public Radio" instead of "NPR" in the ref#4
  • YDone. I used that in the article text, too. — sparklism ^hey! 19:47, 29 October 2015 (UTC) reply
• It is Paste in ref#14 and Paste magazine in ref#3. Please be consistent.
  • YDone. Good spot! — sparklism ^hey! 19:47, 29 October 2015 (UTC) reply
• "Dead Oceans" should not be in italics.

Sorry for the delay. This is a good little article and there aren't any major issues. I will pass once the issues posted are addressed. Thanks, Yash! 11:15, 29 October 2015 (UTC) reply
