This article is a BLP with one source. This source was not only released by his band, it was literally written by him. In addition, this source does not demonstrate this artist's notability. See WP:OWNSITE. JJP...MASTER!...MASTER!!! master of puppets, i'm pulling your strings (0-3-5)[talk about or to] JJP... master? master? where's the dreams that i've been after (0-3-6-5) 17:24, 3 November 2020 (UTC)

Edit: I am also nominating Mick Rogers (musician) and John Lingwood for deletion, as their sources are minimal as well, in Mick's case all of the sources appear to be self-published, one of which appears to be a wiki of sorts. As for John, three of the sources are self-published and one of the sources is made by a drum manufacturer that endorses him, possibly implying a conflict of interest.

 * Redirect to Manfred Mann's Earth Band: while he doesn't meet an of the criteria listed at WP:MUSICBIO, he's been a member for several decades, so this seems a logical redirect. ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 19:44, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Edit: redirect all. ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 18:36, 6 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Redirect all three to Manfred Mann's Earth Band. Each musician has a history outside of M.M.E.B. but not enough for standalone articles. (Though Lingwood is a close call.) When each is introduced in the M.M.E.B. article his prior associations can be described briefly.  DOOMSDAYER 520 \ TALK \ CONTRIBS 22:41, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
