Largely promotional puff piece that doesn't include any serious claims to fame. No reliable sources found. ninety:one 23:22, 8 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I can see why this is being said. I have verified the information on Discogs, IMDB and the web. I think the "puff" should be taken out and I will edit this piece to do that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Infodataguru (talk • contribs) 11:39, 9 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I don't know what this looked like before others have edited it but it looks fine now. Everything checks out and is accurate without to much puff. I think it should be here. He obviously has contributed much to the music industry. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Musicologyst101 (talk • contribs) 17:39, 9 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No in depth coverage by reliable sources. Supplied IMDb and Discogs links are trivial database entries that only prove that the article is not a complete hoax. The links provide zero support for any of the biographical details. A search for reliable sources gets only false positives. • Gene93k (talk) 21:07, 9 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"Do Not Delete" After review of over 50 other Biography's I found them to be NO different than this. I think this is a personal issue with someone. I cannot find one reason why IMDB, Discogs etc are now being discounted.

Delete per lack of notable mentions. I digged through two pages each of Yahoo and Google searches, and I didn't find any solid mentions just small mentions on websites. Although, the article cites IMDb and Discogs the article can't sustain itself entirely on those two sources. SwisterTwister talk 05:16, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
