[edit] April 2008

I'm all for removing spam and promotional, non-encyclopedic language. But I'm wondering if some things should be restored from the version just over a week old. That version included his discography and link to his external site. As per WP:EL we can include that latter. Per WP:MUSIC, I think the discography should be included if he is notable. Lastly, from a quick citation search (which I just added to the article) it seems to me that he is notable as one of the first and few people who brought overtone singing from eastern cultures to a western exposure. Not sure about his New Age connections and related activities, would need to look for more citations for those things. But what do you think about adding some of the material back? If I don't hear any comments in a little bit of time I'll just add them back. Thanks. - Owlmonkey (talk) 19:53, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
