Oldest message[edit]

I made a couple changes. Pink Floyd's most prominent use of flanger is unarguably "Run Like Hell". The article listed "Another Brick In The Wall Part II" instead. I don't believe the latter song is flanged at all -- I think it's a chorus -- but even if a flanger is used, it's moderate . . . whereas "Run Like Hell" is almost a textbook example of what flanging sounds like. So I just replaced one with the other.

Also, "Killer Queen" was mentioned twice for each example of flanging, so I just consolidated them into one.

Shouldn't "Keep Yourself Alive" appear first? And a couple others from the first album, like "Liar". Unless it's just phasing... Marcusbacus (talk) 01:36, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

As long as I'm commenting, I was pretty tickled to see "Lookin' at Tomorrow (A Welfare Song)" included. Cute song, I'd completely forgotten about it. --63.25.252.95 22:54, 26 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Pepper and Scentless Apprentice[edit]

1. Pepper by Butthole Surfers has no flange effects in it. 2. Scentless Apprentice by Nirvana has a heavy use of flange, especially when it was played live, perhaps it should be on the list? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.97.178.150 (talk) 01:04, August 26, 2007 (UTC)

Unreferenced[edit]

I have tagged the article as unreferenced. I love the list, but unless it's cited with sources and turned into some type of article, it's going to eventually be tagged for deletion as a trivial, unreferenced list WP:LISTCRUFT. dissolve ^talk 00:45, 26 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Someone, please source this - I really don't want to delete this but at the moment it's pure WP:OR — iridescent 23:59, 13 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vast numbers of unreferenced entries have again polluted this list. Tagged the worst sections. It's such an unremarkable sound effect now, that it may be impossible to find sources to support lots of the entries here. So, the days of flanging being noticed and documented are over; that's the way of things. Unsourced entries belong on NoRefipedia or UnSourcedipedia, not here. And I'm an inclusionist'. --Lexein (talk) 21:32, 11 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love[edit]

Beatles[edit]

The Beatles use phasing on "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds" not flanging. --Kingcrimsonfan (talk) 15:58, 8 October 2009 (UTC)KingCrimsonfan[reply]

Prominent Songs[edit]

Maybe it was a product of when I grew up, but I think Plush by STP should be on this list. It's the song I think of when I think of Flanger. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.247.58.203 (talk) 21:25, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida[edit]

And where is In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida by Iron Butterfly? The drum solo was uniquely flanged so that in stereo it caused a wafting effect rather than flanging. in mono the full effect was revealed. Don't think has been done since. But I could stand corrected. --Beatnut88 (talk) 11:09, 21 May 2011 (UTC)beatnut88[reply]

Unsourced, moved here[edit]

I watched the movie, Holiday Inn (film) (1942, black & white, uncut), and observed no flange effect in the song from 29:30 - 30:45 - the song was only present once - so I moved it here for discussion.

"Happy Holiday" (1942) by Bing Crosby has flanging horns^{[citation needed]}

Shanklin wave[edit]

Back in the day, ca. 1965, we called the effect the "Shanklin wave", after Wayne Shanklin. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:3398:DD10:7839:AABD:AD5D:5658 (talk) 09:24, 29 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
