The Countdown Singers

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Only notability claim is that they record cheapo sound-alike dollar store versions of songs. They are clearly prolific, and a couple of their albums have Allmusic reviews (note, however, that their label doesn't have an article and seems to fail WP:CORP), but I'm finding no major sources besides Allmusic's terse reviews.

 * Move to the company name, per my comments at the very similar Articles for deletion/The Hit Crew. They've had chart success and have sold loads of albums, but since there is no real "band" per se, an article at the company name makes more sense.  Madacy is apparently the US's biggest independent label and it's kinda surprising we don't have an article on them.  Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  18:07, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep I own several of the albums listed. Apparently, they are successful enough to keep putting out sound-alike albums like these, even after paying the writers their fees. Who knows, maybe someone who has an al bum or two would like to know what other albums they have made and when they look here, they can see all the albums they recorded. I say keep.

 * Keep, seems to meet WP:NMG. No issues with the move. Stifle (talk) 08:47, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
