Non-notable. can only find passing mentions and self promotion. No substantial coverage in reliable sources as far as I can. Also appears this maybe an autobiography. Ridernyc (talk) 20:51, 20 May 2012 (UTC)


 * References to Hot Press (biggest music magazine in Ireland), Jazzwise (biggest UK jazz magazine), University of Ulster and the BBC indicate notability. Williamcrosswiki (talk) 22:56, 20 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Is this the bbc reference you are referring to? If it is that is far from substantial coverage. Same for this . Simply having an artist mentioned is not substantial coverage.  This is simply an announcement of a performance .  Sorry but only one of the sources you provide come anywhere near establishing notability.  Before we proceed further is there any conflict of interest you might want to disclose? Ridernyc (talk) 22:27, 20 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep. Looking through the article's sources, I'd say that Hot Press, All About Jazz, JMI/Journal of Music, and Culture Northern Ireland each contains non-trivial coverage on the subject - enough to meet WP:GNG and criterion 1 of WP:MUSICBIO.  Gongshow  Talk 06:31, 22 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep - The topic passes WP:GNG, having received significant coverage in reliable sources:
 * The Journal of Music – Live Reviews: David Lyttle Group featuring Greg Osby
 * Hot Press Magazine – Interlude: Homegrown urban soul at its finest
 * There's also this article, which may not quite be significant coverage, but is comprised of more than just mentions about Lyttle:
 * Guitar Player Magazine – Following the Footsteps of GIANTS
 * — Northamerica1000(talk) 05:58, 23 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep - it passes WP:GNG and it is improved since nominated for AfD. I suggest withdrawing this.  →TSU tp* 21:47, 26 May 2012 (UTC)
