I almost had completed the summary, discography, and references section, but when i clicked the "save" button it did not register and was deleted. I am going to retype it right now. Billyf1967 (talk) 01:21, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'll remove the deletion tag if you can show me that the article meets the minimum requirements listed at WP:MUSICBIO. -- WikHead (talk) 01:55, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Can you provide a verifiable reference stating that they were signed to Rhino Records? -- WikHead (talk) 02:06, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

They were never officially signed to Rhino. They were signed to Ace Records Ltd. Rhino only reproduced a few of their songs on compilations made up of various artists, which the tracks were courtesy of Ace Records, Ltd.Billyf1967 (talk) 02:25, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What about the band members? Were any of them members of other notable bands? Did their single achieve any sales awards? -- WikHead (talk) 02:28, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ron Nagle released a solo album Bad Rice which has become a cult favorite album, but after focused more on ceramics. He did in the mid-70s partner with Scott Mathews and formed The Durocs and released an album in '79 that got 5 stars from Rolling Stone magazine. The pair also wrote songs for Barbara Streisand, The Tubes, and Michelle Phillips. Billyf1967 (talk) 02:46, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I really don't think that addresses the requirements of WP:MUSICBIO. The deciding admin may however see something that I've overlooked though. Good luck! :) -- WikHead (talk) 02:52, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thank You. By the way, do singes count as records? Because then they would have two releases on Ace Records (Criteria for musicians and ensembles 5.)Billyf1967 (talk) 03:15, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm thinking that it specifically means albums, but I'll keep my fingers crossed for you :) -- WikHead (talk) 03:18, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
