[edit] Classical-Rock Music, John Solo, John Pham

Classical-Rock Music is a new genre (not "classic rock"); John Solo its pioneer. —Quarl (talk) 2006-10-15 07:47Z

Update: adding John Pham —Quarl (talk) 2006-10-15 19:23Z
  • Speedy delete John Solo as there is no assertion of notability. So tagged. As for Classical-Rock Music, delete - you'd think a genre that is known as the article suggests would get more than 449 ghits. MER-C 08:03, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as the user who originally marked Solo's article as a db-bio. He may well have invented a new genre, but until it becomes more well-known (and possibly better-defined), neither it nor its originator are notable. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 08:56, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
  • I suspect Freddie Mercury, Paul McCartney, Elvis Costello, even Tindersticks, you name a couple of dozen others, may have been "blending classical music with rock and roll music" for quite a long time before this chap came up with the idea, without the need to invent a term for it. Delete both all three articles, the former as OR, the latter two as NN (or unverifiable, possibly hoax: apparently his personal life and whereabouts remain a mystery').

  • Strong delete; just one look at the picture will tell you why this is a completely unverifiable vanity page. (|-- UlTiMuS 22:38, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
