Hi, JM. I edited the Todd Hobin entry again, adding four independent links. You'll find them in the body copy. I hope this will raise the article to meet your living musician criteria. This is my first attempt at writing a Wikipedia entry, obviously. Thank you for your editing help and feedback. -- Mark
