Soul Insight

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This album doesn't seem to pass the notability criteria for albums, nor does it pass our general notability guidelines. There just aren't enough significant mentions. Heck, people can't even agree if it was released in 2014 or in 2015. Thus, this article should be deleted, as we just can't verify the material in it. RileyBugz 私に叫ぼう私の編集 16:52, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment: it was 2015. And the album reached no. 8 on the Billboard Blues Chart . Richard3120 (talk) 19:36, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
 * That doesn't necessarily mean its notable. Since it didn't seem to appear on the Billboard 200 (which would mean that it is automatically notable per WP:NMUSIC (see this for national record charts)) and does not seem to have significant coverage, it is not currently notable.

 * I agree - I was about to add that a specialist chart doesn't necessarily make for a pass of WP:NALBUM by itself, but I lost mobile reception temporarily. The fact it charted though might indicate that there are sources out there in specialist jazz publications. Richard3120 (talk) 19:56, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Addendum: I don't know if this is the whole chart, but the Billboard website only shows a top 15 for the Blues Chart – that wouldn't indicate that this chart is very important or that many sales are needed, if it can only stretch to fifteen places, which would sway me towards delete or redirect. And the article for the Marcus King Band itself is virtually a WP:COPYVIO from the press release cited here on the band's own website ... it may be that both articles need to go.

 * Delete unless there's more coverage than I can find. All I've seen is passing mentions in articles about the band or the person. Our article about the band covers the release date and chart placing, so all we'd be losing is the track listing, which is relatively unimportant for an encyclopedia.
