unreferenced puffpiece tagged for three years, lots of namedropping and wild claims of notability, yet... Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 21:32, 23 November 2010 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 01:26, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep I've removed the substantial chunk of the article that was lifted from his own website as a WP:COPYVIO and added a reference to Scott Yanow's Allmusic biography. It is now a much shorter article, and still has several quotations without full attribution, but it is a better foundation to build on, and he does seem notable: 4 of the albums on the Allmusic discography have reviews in their own right.

 * Delete unless someone can give some indication this meets Wikipedia's notability standards. There *are* news results for him, but they seem to be mainly ads or small articles saying little more than that he will be playing at such-and-such location. -- Susan118   talk  19:26, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment WP:MUSICBIO criterion 1 multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in reliable sources: see the Allmusic reviews by Scott Yanow, Steve Huey and Ross Boissoneau (from my link above); criterion 5: multiple releases on Concord Jazz and GSP Recordings.

 * Keep per AllyD. Multiple albums on significant labels reviewed at Allmusic including one that's an "Album Pick". --Arxiloxos (talk) 03:12, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
