This is a minor project cataloguing the works of one jazz musician. The articles seems very promotional.John Pack Lambert (talk) 18:51, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment regarding the above rationale - it isn't accurate to say "one jazz musician": it is an archive of one person's recordings of many jazz musicians. Which leaves the question of whether the archive project is sufficiently notable. AllyD (talk) 20:16, 22 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak keep: I have added references from several bylined articles in a variety of sources. My only reluctance with a strong "keep" opinion is that they are all from around the same time, effectively coinciding with publication and exhibition, which may be open to argument that they are transient notice rather than evidence of lasting notability.

• Merge with W. Eugene Smith: it's an archive devoted to preserving the work of Smith, and there's no reason it can't be discussed in Smith's article. --Colapeninsula (talk) 14:50, 24 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
