The result was keep. The deletion rationale is that it fails a project criteria. The keep rationale is that it passes a SNG. While passing an SNG is not necessarily enough evidence of notability should it be challenge directly, given that there was no argument against notability on the basis of the SNG, the keep consensus holds.

 * Keep – The referred guideline is a an advice on style in the form of an essay. Nominated for a Grammy, the album satisfies WP:NALBUM. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 01:26, 19 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. note that it also fails WP:COPYVIO. The main bulk of the article, apart from track by track listing and personnel copied from the recording details, consists of long paraphrases of critics reviews - these are certainly violations of copyright.Smerus (talk) 07:07, 19 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep per Michael Bednarek. Remove any copyvio material. If it leaves a stub it leaves a stub. Copyvio is not a valid reason to delete a notable topic.4meter4 (talk) 01:26, 20 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:NALBUM. The article's COPYVIO issue has now been addressed - brief quotes from reviews will be supplied in due course. For further discussion, see Opera, Oct 1981, p. 1040.Niggle1892 (talk) 01:21, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment The allegedly COPYVIO material that I excised has now been restored by another editor on the grounds that removing it was destructive editing and possible vandalism. Wikipedia - you gotta love it.Niggle1892 (talk) 18:47, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
