Challenging the genre "blues rock".

User:Metalvayne is trying to use the source here to say that this song's genre is "blues rock". Per the source:

Do you still consider Alice In Chains to be a "heavy metal" band or are you just "rock" now?

No, we're part of the metal thing. We're a lot of different things, too. I don't quite know what the mixture is, but there's definitely metal, blues, rock and roll, maybe a touch of punk... The metal part will never leave us. And I never want it to.

My concern, of course, is that at no point are they talking about this particular song. Any application to this particular song appears to be original research. Therefore, I don't believe the genre can be used unless a better source is found. Thoughts? Sergecross73 msg me 12:47, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

The article says that "'What the Hell Have I' was a one track promotional CD" and then proceeds to list three tracks, two of which appear on Last Action Hero: Music from the Original Motion Picture and the third being, allegedly, a live recording of "Rooster," although with absolutely no date or venue listed.

The track listing section of the article was, without explanation, added to the article on 10 December 2007 by Nbordy, and included, at that time, only the first two of the three tracks currently listed.

On 24 October 2011, the page was edited with explanation by 81.103.170.227 to remove the second track from the track listing, although this edit was immediately reverted by Sp33dyphil.  Undaunted, 81.103.170.227 edited the page again, this time specifically inserting the "one track promotional cd" language, but failing, this time, to remove the second track from the track listing.

81.103.170.227 had provided the following relevant explanations for her or his edits:

  • Facts, never released as a single. Was only shipped to radio stations.
  • It was a 1 track CD see discogs. http://www.discogs.com/Alice-In-Chains-What-The-Hell-Have-I/release/1888496
  • Never released as a single 1 track promo cd sent to radio stations, see the aforementioned discogs entry and also the billboard website showing it never charted in the singles chart, just the Hot Mainstream Rock list which is a radio play chart not a
  • Info box misleading, stating this was a single. It;'s a track from a compilation as advised in history above. Never released as a single.

Then, on 8 June 2014, with no explanation, 64.146.213.151 edited the page in order to add a third item to the track listing, "Rooster (Live)."

If there indeed was a three-track single released at some point, methinks this needs to be sourced.  If this was the case, then the date and venue for the live recording of "Rooster" ought also be added to the page.

On the other hand, if 81.103.170.227 is correct, then this spurious track listing ought to be exorcised from the article.
