 * Delete - While this pains me as a jazz fan, from my searching it looks like he's only a bit notable, and he doesn't seem to have gotten the kind of coverage that merits a Wiki page. I agree that this should be deleted. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 22:07, 11 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete - Me too as a jazz and fusion drummer and keyboarder. Fails WP:MUSICBIO, notability is not inherited from the people he played with, and even his Drumstick is sadly not notable. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 22:35, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

Anyone got a store of eight to fifteen year old Jazz magazines? --Bejnar (talk) 01:49, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
