The New Age of Atlantic

 * – ( View AfD View log )

10 pages of Google returns and the only notability are: a week on an unnamed chart (is this source reliable?) and Bob Dylan was introduced to John Prine by way of this album. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 06:22, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep This 1972 rock album includes songs by 11 notable artists, including the first release of songs by Led Zeppelin and Yes. At least four of the songs on the album are themselves notable. Our music notability guideline for albums says that "In general, if the musician or ensemble is notable, and if the album in question has been mentioned in multiple reliable sources, then their officially released albums may have sufficient notability to have individual articles on Wikipedia."  At the time of release, this album was discussed in reliable music publications such as Billboard and Gramophone and later was mentioned in a book about Led Zeppelin.

 * Response Notability isn't inherited and this isn't a Led Zeppelin album--merely an album that has a Led Zeppelin song. There are hundreds--probably thousands--of instances like this. Mere mentions in books and publications do not amount to significant third-party coverage. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 11:01, 6 August 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep or merge with The Age of Atlantic. Per Cullen328 - these series of budget-priced sampler albums were important, influential and innovative at the time.  Album reached UK album charts.  Ghmyrtle (talk) 10:23, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
