Fair use rationale for Image:Klark Kent - Klark Kent UK 10 in LP cover.jpg[edit]

Image:Klark Kent - Klark Kent UK 10 in LP cover.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Merger proposal[edit]

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
The result of this discussion was to merge. Martin IIIa (talk) 15:27, 4 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I propose that Kollected Works be merged into Klark Kent (album). Kollected Works is essentially a reissue of Klark Kent with bonus tracks, so it doesn't make sense to upkeep separate articles on them, especially as neither article has much content (and thus both could comfortably fit into one article).--Martin IIIa (talk) 13:58, 27 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, a week has passed and obviously no one but me cares one way or another, so I'll go ahead and perform the merge.--Martin IIIa (talk) 15:26, 4 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"Don't Care" on Top of the Pops[edit]

Stewart Copeland appeared on the BBC's Top of the Pops programme in August 1978 to perform "Don't Care". He wore green makeup and sunglasses to make his appearance less obvious. He was accompanied by three guitarists and a drummer who anonymously wore various oversized masks (a Nixon, a gorilla, a bald top with long hair around the side and back and ). None of them was making any attempted to play convincingly but did put plenty of energy into jumping around. The lyrics toward the end were: "You're probably wondering why I'm wearing this mask. [Sure am] Well, 'cos underneath a mask, the true identity is revealed". "Don't Care" on YouTube

I came to this article because I was just watching a rerun of that TotP episode and had never seen that song. I didn't recognise Copeland (Great mask! Or I just don't know him that well, heh heh) but I certainly recognised the drumming, which sounded very Copeland. I had to look it up. ;-)

The Superman Konnection[edit]

I'm not sure where to find back-up , perhaps this will jog some memories , but original copies of the "Klark Kent" 10" were advertised as being on "Kryptonite Green vinyl". ( Perhaps a label on the sleeve? ) .Also , perhaps to avoid any sort of lawsuit from DC Comics , at some point Stewart claimed the name was actually pronounced "Clerk Cunt" … unfortunately , I can't recall the magazine interview!

First chart hit?[edit]

""Don't Care" was actually the first chart hit for any member of The Police"...

Is this really true? I believe Andy Summers was in The Animals when they recorded their cover of "Ring of Fire" that reached #35 in 1969. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.114.45.168 (talk) 08:17, 23 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
