Talk:The Noseflutes

Well, it's a start. I must dig out my vinyl and add in all the pseudonyms. I was genuinely stuck when it came to genre. Ned-kogar (talk) 18:36, 29 July 2010 (UTC)

Response to Deletion Warning:

I think The Noseflutes qualify under the Notability Criteria via: Has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent from the musician or ensemble itself and reliable. This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, books, magazine articles, online versions of print media, and television documentaries - they get a chapter in John Robb's Death to Trad Rock, and were regularly reviewed in the British music press of the time (Melody Maker, NME, Sounds, Q, etc) - it might take me a while to track down the reviews, though I've just found the following quotes (I didn't know the band had an online archive until your message spurred me into a chunk of seeking, so thanks!)

also: having looked up the definition of album, their two EPs on Ron Johnson records should be listed as Albums, so released two or more albums on a major label or one of the more important indie labels (i.e., an independent label with a history of more than a few years and a roster of performers, many of which are notable) might also be relevant.

and also: Has become one of the most prominent representatives of a notable style or the most prominent of the local scene of a city - to quote Death To Trad Rock, "The Noseflutes became the house band in Birmingham"

I'm sure there'll be more I can dig up.
