Mid

This article has been rated as Mid-importance on the project's importance scale.

This article was a past project collaboration.

To-do list:

Fair use

Add fair use rationale to all images and sound samples (all except images already labeled free use).
Re-size large images around to 300 pixels (all "fair use" images), other than album covers (already done).

Articles

Expand all articles to at least Start class. Some song stubs can't be expanded and should be redirected to the relevant album article. Use the "Interstellar Overdrive" article as an example when editing a song stub.
Expand all of the Floyd's studio album articles to at least GA status.
See COTM for monthly collabs.

Project building

Add WikiProject Pink Floyd banner {{WPFloyd}} to all appropriate Talk pages.
Personally invite quality editors working on Pink Floyd articles to join the project.

If you complete one of these tasks, please remove it from the list.

Picture[edit]

That's a really shitty picture of Snowy White, makes him look like some old fart instead of the guitar hero he is. Can someone find a better one?

"Bird of Paradise"[edit]

It seems odd to me that the present article makes no mention of his 1983 UK Singles Chart Top Ten, hit single, "Bird of Paradise". To the casual observer it is easily his most prominent solo effort.

Band / Albums table[edit]

The table at the bottom refers to Thin Lizzy, not Snowy White 158.234.250.71 (talk) 16:23, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's because it's the Thin Lizzy template, of which Snowy White is a part - it goes on all the members' pages. Bretonbanquet (talk) 18:00, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

1995[edit]

There are recordings in circulation of White playing in Mick Taylor's band in July and September of 1995, in Sweden, Serbia, Macedonia, Ukraine and England. http://www.nzentgraf.de/books/mt/taylor1.htm is a relevant page of a website devoted to exhaustive documentation of Taylor's career.

Pigs On The Wing[edit]

It's stated in this article and on the Animals page that his performance on the song was only included on the 8-track tape release. It would be nice if the reason why is explained, as that seems rather bizarre. Is his performance not available anywhere else? What about that big 4 disc edition that was released several years ago? If it has never been released after 1977, what is the reason? Contractual issues or something? __ 64.82.141.78 (talk) 05:48, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
