Death

Does anyhow have any information surrounding his death? It seems unusual for an apparently healthy 54 year old man to suffer a heart attack and die. ThereIsNoSteve 03:25, 28 Sep 2003 (UTC)

According to http://www.scotlandonsunday.com/entertainment.cfm?id=1075762003 :

The reasons behind the heart attack remain to be established. Cater said: "Robert had no history of heart problems. Only two weeks ago he had a medical check-up which gave him a clean bill of health.
Cater is Palmer's manager, Nick Cater. RickK 03:29, 28 Sep 2003 (UTC)
Robert Palmer was a heavy smoker throughout his life. The French police have reportedly opened an inquiry into the circumstances of his death. Leanne 03:32, 28 Sep 2003 (UTC)
It has been reported that Robert Palmer had suffered from High Blood Pressure, which could have easily led to the heart attack. That combined with being a heavy smoker bumped up the risk factor.

Also, other sources say that he wasn't buried in Switzerland, but in London...the location of his grave is being kept confidential by his family. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chkencyclopedia (talkcontribs) 15:44, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Who is Mary Ambrose? She contested RPs will, but she's not mentioned elsewhere in the article. What was her relationship to him? --Web1X (talk) 01:42, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

Bruce Palmer

No relation, right? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 12.10.127.58 (talk) 22:30, 19 December 2006 (UTC).

Fair use rationale for Image:Some People Can Do What They Like.jpg

Image:Some People Can Do What They Like.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 Misplaced Pages 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 Misplaced Pages:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Misplaced Pages policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

Nagel's influence?

What ground is there for supposing that the two videos referred to in the article owed anything to the artwork of Nagel. Nagel's name is mentioned twice in the article which is no doubt good news for him but having looked at his artwork I don't see that there is any reason to suppose that the videos had any direct connection to it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.187.233.172 (talk) 18:00, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
