Talk:List of jam bands

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Bands Without Wikipedia Articles

The top of the article states "This list is incomplete; you can help by expanding it.", but someone is deleting any entries that do not have corresponding Wikipedia articles. This seems kind of shortsighted. In this genre it is reasonable to think that many bands are worthy of inclusion on this list, but might not have an article written or might not be notable enough under the guidelines. Keeping those entries on the list may encourage someone to start writing the article.

[edit] Jimiller Band

I have twice written an article about the jimiller band, and twice had it deleted as "CSD A7", unremarkable people. This being said either let me write my article or excise jimiller band from this list.

[edit] Country Joe and the Fish

Do you really think Country Joe and the Fish can be considered a jam band? They were more a 60's era psychedelic and folk group. Jam bands are bands that follow in the tradition of the Grateful Dead and rely on improvisation, admittedly overlapping with psychedelic music but clearly a seperate category. I think it probably should be removed, but I would like to hear other's thoughts first.
