Bio sources

One of the sources for this article is a bio from an industry conference. Since these bios are typically submitted by the presenter, this is not really a great source, I admit. The Variety article also covers some of the same ground, but in less detail. Anyone have anything else? This seems to be someone who has been instrumental in the formation of at least three television networks and maintains one of the industry's most widely used reference works, so it seems like there should be more out there about him. -Miskaton (talk) 22:36, 6 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Lost Sounds needs its own page

Per the number of existing, unlinked references on Wikipedia and the CD's Grammy nomination, I think that Tim Brooks' book, Lost Sounds: Blacks And The Birth Of The Recording Industry (google) is notable enough for its own page. -Miskaton (talk) 15:10, 7 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Incoming links

Tim Brooks, it seems, was widely referenced on Wikipedia, already. I've gone through an modified a few of the references to be links to his article, but I leave it up to others to follow through, as I don't have infinite time... -Miskaton (talk) 15:14, 7 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
