Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue).

  • Comment: Discogs is user generated and so not a reliable source, and the other source is an interview (and not independent). Are there (for example) 2-3 newspaper articles about him or reviews of his work? Rusalkii (talk) 23:03, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
