[edit] What kind of album is it?
The intro sentence does not confirm for The Mix to be a compilation album, but it does not seem to be an original studio album (all of the songs have been released on earlier albums, re-recorded or not) and it is neither a live album (based on the darkturquoise colour of the infobox), so according to Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums, it seems to be better suited to be categorised as a re-worked and re-recorded compilation album, and therefore use the darkseagreen infobox colour. --Andylkl (talk) 19:17, July 30, 2005 (UTC)
With all due respect, you don't sound like you've even heard the album in question?
THE MIX an album of completely new recordings, not a compilation of old recordings. (That is what a compilation album is: a collection of existing *recordings* which have ALREADY BEEN RELEASED on various other albums, singles, etc ) Ralf Hütter like to call it a "live album", as it was very similar to their way of performing the songs on stage at that time (although of course, it was not performed live, but painstakingly and laboriously programmed - mostly by Karl Bartos, if you believe his little bitchy comments ;-)--feline1 21:09, 30 July 2005 (UTC)
- No I have not heard the album yet, so I'll trust your judgement on this. So, do please tell me, live album, music album, greatest hits, which one is it exactly is? --Andylkl (talk) 10:40, August 19, 2005 (UTC)

- Well, if we must pick one of those categories, it is a music album.--feline1 10:43, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks, I didn't really expect such a quick reply. :) Okay then, I'm going to change the infobox colour to orange and change the track listing format. --Andylkl (talk) 10:59, August 19, 2005 (UTC)
- It's a "Money-for-old-rope" album – what colour infobox would that be? :-D Ricadus 18:23, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
