Picture

A picture would be a nice compliment to this article. PierceG 02:03, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Done. I used a screenshot from his "Variations on the Kanon by Pachelbel" performance. --Matt0401 19:54, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Would it be too much to ask that a screenshot showing his face' could be found and used? Daniel Case 04:45, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Daniel, it's really difficult to upload photographs of living persons to Wikipedia due to copyright issues. IvyRabbit (talk) 18:02, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Too many quotes

I'm not questioning the sources of those quotes, the thing is, they are uncyclopedic, and most of them provide only trivia to this article. In addition, if you really wanna keep them, consider writing them in a reported speech form, to keep the quality of the article. Victao lopes (talk) 01:46, 25 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"New Age"?

Our own article says that Winston "eschews" the term "New Age"(and I don't blame him), yet we describe him that way twice (lede and infobox). Any way around that? —Steve Summit (talk) 05:56, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Career information

Anyone up for fixing the career section? The second paragraph and the final paragraph of the section are contradictory. Just watching him live on YouTube tonight and in his Q&A he says that he first loved Vince Guaraldi after hearing Cast Your Fate in 1962 (which is what the final paragraph there says). --gobears87 (talk) 03:43, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

He also said cats are his favorite thing, and he talked about them a lot. (Hence his Dancing Cat record label.) And I wonder if that ought to be added in "Personal Life". He said he has owned 22 cats, though they have all passed on and he doesn't have one now (lots of cat figurines in the background and one on his piano). --gobears87 (talk) 03:46, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
