Fails WP:MUSICBIO. Sources all fail WP:RS. Note that the band he played in is also at AFD for failing WP:BAND. Dennis Brown - 2&cent;    &copy;  14:44, 27 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment I'm not 100% sure I agree yet that he fails WP:MUSICBIO, specifically #6 "...is a musician who has been a member of two or more independently notable ensembles." I agree that the current sourcing is sub-par.  The only non-SPS is this City of Joliet and it's quite weak.  I feel like the individual meets WP:MUSICBIO notability criteria but instead the article will fail due to insufficient WP:V sourcing required of WP:BLP, although I don't see anything in the article has anything in it "challenged or likely to be challenged".    15:14, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment He has been part in some major rock and blues bands, like Eric Burdon, Walter Trout, Eric Sardinas, Edgar Winter, Jennifer Batten etc. etc., is featured on many albums by them and was in the bands for years, not only a one-night stand-in, he is worth the article, for sure. He has his own studio and still plays for many bands at the same time..he's a well-known name in the music business, as a drummer and producer.  00:00, 09 July 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete as failing to have significant coverage in independent third party sources. Ping my talk page if more sources are added to the article. Stuartyeates (talk) 09:20, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep in light of his band being kept; if the band is notable then that band plus his other experiences should add up to notability.BennyHillbilly (talk) 06:00, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Except notability is not inherited from the band to the band members. Stuartyeates (talk) 07:50, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
