Hi - I'll make copyedits as I go (please revert if I inadvertently change the meaning) and jot queries below Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 05:17, 6 December 2017 (UTC)

@Casliber: So what's up with the review?

Got sidetracked. Will get onto it soon. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 04:04, 16 December 2017 (UTC)

..and gave Don Henley and Glenn Frey each the resulting demo cassette. - "a" cassette each surely? actually "a resulting cassette" sounds odd too. "a copy of the recording"?

I fixed that. I think the song can be promoted now, if there aren't any other issues you feel need to be addressed.

who had replaced Bernie Leadon who left in 1975 - sounds odd with the two "who"s

...and the record company was reluctant to release it as a single because, at over six minutes, its duration far exceeds that of the songs generally played by radio stations - "exceeds" should be in past tense as everything else is in the sentence. Also "as a single" redundant as implied by the first part of the sentence.

Can "B Dorian" be linked anywhere?

Although the band members and Phillips met to discuss the project, tension between the two parties ended the pre-development deal for the film - left hanging...can this be elaborated upon?

@Casliber: I fixed all the problems you discussed and found no Wikipedia article for "B Dorian".

Earwigs looks ok, first one is a mirror, and others are inflated scores due to quotes. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 19:52, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
