Unclear of the notability here, though I think I'm leaning not (and merge/redirect to the artist, of course). The article only has an AllMusic review, valid but not enough on its own, and the other coverage I could find was this blurb from Express and a few paragraphs in Thornton's autobiography. I don't know if Express is reliable, though it was a publication of The Washington Post so I wouldn't see why not, and though the piece is short, it's not entirely insubstantial. As for the autobiography, I have no idea what that does in regards to notability given I'm pretty sure it's entirely a primary source. This really doesn't seem like much all told, but perhaps it's just me being less favorable than most to a bare minimum pass as often seems to be the case.

I really can't understand why this page should be deleted.
If we need to be sure that this album actually exists, I bought it and I can share a picture of... well, everything.
It's part of Thornton's story and work, why should we delete it?
Please read my contribution not as a critic, but as a real "desire" to undestand and, if needed, to rewrite this page/part of this page in a better way. 151.67.113.137 (talk) 12:42, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's a concern of notability, not just whether it exists. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 13:23, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. There is everything that the nominator indicates, which may have been considered enough. + this (The Oklahoman).+this +this and this or this (and that's just a one-click search......) I'm inviting the nominator to kindly withdraw this. Thanks.-My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 14:45, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - It didn't get much mass media notice, which is a bit of a surprise for a famous actor with a side career in music, but the reviews found by the previous voter are enough to build a basic stub article. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 15:20, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: It's talked about here [1], but I don't think we have enough for notability. Oaktree b (talk) 15:22, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I can't deny how much Mushy Yank has improved this one. Even if the lack of recognizable sources which have been added makes me slightly hesitant, I was also hesitant to launch this AfD in the first place because it was an edge case, and I can't deny it's been massively improved since then. If anyone else, such as Oaktree, still don't see it, then they can relaunch a new AfD whenever it's appropriate, but for now I am withdrawing.
