[edit]Looks like someone basically re-wrote the biography from the Official website. Not so much a re-writing as a re-wording: I'm not sure if the editor really changed enough to make it his or her own words (and in some cases, the re-wording changed the meaning entirely). I wonder whether this is a borderline copyvio. Which would be too bad, because Enoch Light is ceraintly worthy of an encyclopedia entry. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 20:24, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
- Also just noticed that Enoch Light turns 100 tomorrow. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 20:40, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
- I looked for other sources, but they all seemed to be blatant copy and pastes of that article. So I tryed to reword as best I could and hope that other editors would come along and change it up in the future...Isn't that how Wikipedia works, don't wory if it's not perfect, someone will come along and fix it later...At least I started the article.

- No, you did good, I was just worried that it might be too similar. I took a crack at it myself, so we're probably far enough from the original by now. And yes, now it is indeed Enoch Light's 100th birthday. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 16:07, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
The comment about Enoch Light inventing the gatefold album cover is incorrect. It was in use at least as early as January 1958, as I have a copy of the "Mercury Spin Girl" promotional record issued in that month by Mercury Records, which has a gatefold cover. I suspect it may have been used earlier. Also the "Belafonte at Carnegie Hall" on RCA had a gatefold cover, released in October 1959, which was probably developed independently at the same time.Obscurelabel 16:58, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
Utter nonsense about the gatefold packaging invention. I have albums from 1946 (on 78rpm shellac, obviously) with gatefold covers. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.247.133.180 (talk) 04:30, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
