Music research paper Pink Floyd

use the book Rockin in Time by David Szatmary as a source.

I also need the 1st page with a reference at least within 24 hours from hire

The topic for the paper is Pink Floyd. Please use a 12 size font and “double space” your writing. A 5 page minimum means 5 complete pages of actual research paper plus your works cited page. Wikipedia may not be used as a source.

Every paraphrased sentence needs a source at the end of the sentence. Every quotation needs to be cited properly. Unless your sentence is your own original thought, idea, or observation, you need to credit a published author for that information. Prior knowledge about a band/artist is still considered “paraphrased information” because that information came from somewhere else or someone else originally. Please go through the “Research Paper Checklist” to avoid common mistakes.

Here are a few examples:

I think Def Leppard is an awesome band. (No source is needed at the end of the sentence, because that is “what I think”.

Def Leppard started in Sheffield, England. (source..?)

This paraphrased sentence needs a source at the end of the sentence.

If you are using the Internet for information, that was published by someone else. There is nothing wrong with paraphrasing (rewriting another author’s work in your own words) as long as you put a source at the end of each and every paraphrased sentence.

Here is another simple example:

Paul McCartney played bass for The Beatles. (This needs a source also. I know this and you might also know this, but the information came from somewhere else originally. Unless you were a member of The Beatles, you can’t write that Paul McCartney was their bass player without sourcing it.)

Please do a spelling/grammar check and proofread your paper before you turn it in. If you submit your paper through Canvas early, I will grade the version that you submit.
