Prescott ellison

Lots of superlatives here, but I can't find anything with a reliable source which shows notability. He does have an artistdirect entry, but all it does is list the albums he was a session drummer on, there's no text. There's a page for him at allmusic.com, but that's even less meaningful than the artistdirect page. He does seem to have quite the resume as a session drummer, but I can't find anything about him that's reliable. There's also another Prescott Ellison, which skews the number of google hits. The other one bills himself as the "blind black republican", so if you remove "republican" from the Google search, you get 59 hits, none of them reliable.
