Screamin' and Hollerin' the Blues: The Worlds of Charley Patton

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Borderline failure of WP:NALBUMS, and no real assertion of notability. It meets no criteria except for "nomination of a Grammy", and the underlying issue there is that the awards were given to personnel involved with the creation of the album in this format (as noted here), and not the album itself. None of the winners were musicians on this album; they won awards for either compiling the work, packaging the work, or writing about the work, which seems to fall under WP:NOTINHERITED. As far as content, the album is material extant elsewhere. The reviews cited also focus more on the contemporary work to create the set than on the actual artist/recordings. There's a blurb in Patton's article on this album, but I think a consensus to redirect or delete is necessary in this case because of notability policy implications re: the awards. Winning Grammy Award for Best Historical Album does not appear to be a slamdunk for a standalone article on said album, based on the list article noted above. MSJapan (talk) 04:00, 4 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Selective Merge (or keep) to Charley Patton § Recognitions, where this is already mentioned. Content in the Reception section of this article will serve to improve the merge target article. North America1000 06:01, 11 July 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Strong keep - This release won 3 Grammys in 2003  so clearly meets WP:NALBUM #4. Also, significant coverage in reliable sources e.g.,, , . ~Kvng (talk) 14:34, 11 July 2016 (UTC)
