Jo and The Latin Boys[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

There is no reference to Jo and The Latin Boys in news archives, in books, or in any established music sales site. The article has no references except a youtube video with old songs and photos. By searching Decca's archives and other places I could not prove to myself that the songs were actually released by Decca, as claimed in the article.

What are you talking about? Promotion? Deletion? Jo and the Latin Boys have been posted on mambo music because they are an extremely important part of mambo History. They have been out of the music biz for 60 years and they absolutely didn't care about it. Tito Puente and some of his musicians asked Jo's son for years to retrace their history which has been lost thru digital time. Only this month we have ben able to have info. This later on will be published in major latin music issues such as Buena Vista social Club. Obviously you don't know anything about mambo music to delete such info of a pioneer band in latin music during the 1930's and 1940's. You will simply look like fools when their work which is now transferred to digital from record label "Decca" 78 rpm will be recognized by the all latin music community. What more do you need? Listen to the music on the video.link. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Entertainementgroup (talk • contribs)

Delete failing WP:Verifiability. No trace of the band or its principal member found anywhere besides the Wikipedia article and a just-posted YouTube video. • Gene93k (talk) 18:57, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy Delete - Just an attempt to use WP for promotional purposes. All Ghits are either the youtube video or links to the video posted to other sites. No discussion of the group seems to exist. No charted recordings. Fails WP:NMUSIC --| Uncle Milty | talk | 21:35, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
