The review

There's a "citation needed" tag about the recording date (in the lead and infobox).
The 'Composition' section seems not fully researched. Do we have information about the other tracks?
There's a minor miss in the certifications. Per RIAA, gold equals half a million copies shipped.
Apart from the notes above, the rest of the article seems fine. I'll put this on hold.

Hey thanks for the review. I've added a reference for its release date. I'd hoped for the composition section to be fulfilled over time (as a poorly-remembered album, there isn't THAT much info on its tracks, nor will there likely be), so I've reincorporated it into the recording section. The RIAA thing was my bad; I'd thought that gold, prior to 1975 or so, represented 1 million sales but I was mistaken. Alright, let me know if there's any more to be done. Thanks again.

Lead info not expanded upon[edit]

This information from the lead, "The album explores Allman's varying influences, including rhythm and blues and soul music. It consists of several cover songs, originals, and a traditional hymn", I was sad to not see mentioned again in the main body of the article. Not knowing what the source for this information is, shouldn't it really be expanded upon in the body to justify it being in the lead?--TangoTizerWolfstone (talk) 11:07, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
