Talk:Boon Gould

The reason he is called ‘Boon’ is noteworthy (after all, the page is, wisely, titled with the name he was known by, not his given name). It was included in previous versions and should be reinstated. (His proclivity not to cry when a baby led to an uncle saying he was a ‘boon’ to the family.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C6:D00F:6B01:5566:6D6F:7712:EC9D (talk) 10:13, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

Guitar Style
Does anyone actually know what a "throw away" guitar playing technique actually is? There's no link to support this. This seems odd as the article claims he is known for this technique. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.99.61.197 (talk) 11:52, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

There is a major flaw with this article. I used to know Boon, a bit, and he is not actually known as Rowland Gould. He was only called that for about 6 month. He only uses the name as a publishing name. The title of the article should be 'Boon Gould' and 'Rowland Gould' should redirect to it. After all, article about Cliff Richard and Elton John are not titled with their original names. Boon has not changed his name legally because he has had no need to, nobody calls him Rowland anyway.

POV
I added the {POV} tag. Here is one sentence from the present article. "Boon is often cited as one of the most underrated guitarists of all time." The addition of some references / sources, and less fancruft would greatly help this currently non-encyclopedic piece. Thanks,
