The Tulips

 * – ( View AfD View log ) •

I removed the speedy deletion tag because a 1960s band requires a more in-depth search for sources—newspaper archives, etc.—since the chances of it having online coverage is slim. A Google News Archive search (for the band and its lead singer, Kenny Kaye) returns no results. This article fails Verifiability at the moment. I will withdraw this nomination if sources can be found to establish notability per Notability or Notability (music). Cunard (talk) 09:29, 19 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete - Although sources may be hard to find for 60's era bands, I would still expect to find some hint of notability or coverage. I can find no supporting evidence that "Summer Song" was a hit single.  Coverage about the band is completely non-existent.  Assuming the timeline in the article is correct, the band didn't really make any sort of splash until 1967 with a single (which I cannot verify).  Their album was never finished before the lead singer died in 1968, and thereafter, nothing happened.  This does in fact fit with no sources being found as they didn't put out much music that was available to public (one song).  If this were a band today, that sort of output would not establish notability, and I don't see it being established for this 1960's era band. -- Whpq (talk) 17:41, 22 November 2010 (UTC)
