Nothing in the article to suggest that this musician meets the requirements of WP:MUSIC. So far all it asserts is that this guy has worked with a string of notable musicians. This in itself is not evidence of notability. All the article's references do is show that the "has worked with" list is correct, although many of the refs are not from what would usually be reliable sources. My prod was removed by an IP who made no attempt to demonstrate the required notability. I don't really care whether the article is deleted or not, but with any luck this AfD will force someone to either prove the notability or at least make an attempt to improve this trainwreck of a musician stub.

Delete As far as I can tell, the subject does not meet any of the criteria laid out at WP:MUSICBIO. As WebHamster notes, working with a string of notable musicians isn't one of those criteria. I would be willing to change my vote to "keep" if notability under WP:MUSICBIO is demonstrated. A Stop at Willoughby (talk) 17:05, 27 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
