[edit] Phil Stout

This article cites no references and does not, to this musical novice, assert the importance of its subject. Furthermore, it has been tagged for cleanup since May of last year. It was suggested on the talk page that the material could be merged into Beautiful music. Mackensen (talk) 01:07, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

• Comment: There are at least two notable bands called "The Hi-Lites" (The Chi-Lites and Ronnie & the Hi-Lites), but with a casual search I can't find any evidence that Mr. Stout belonged to either group. The column might qualify him for authorship guidelines if the paper's circulation were high enough, but to determine that we'd need to know which paper it was. I did find some mentions of him in two books about the history of easy-listening music. [1] [2], but I don't feel informed enough to say with certainty whether that's sufficient. -Hit bull, win steak^(Moo!) 16:05, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
