Facebook is currently exploding with rumours of his passing, and David Torn is the source. I am unable to find any other confirmation however. Manning ( talk) 03:02, 23 August 2017 (UTC) reply

Just posted a link from a reliable source. PaulCHebert ( talk) 04:29, 23 August 2017 (UTC) reply

You beat me to it. Thanks Manning ( talk) 04:51, 23 August 2017 (UTC) reply

I don't know how to enter stuff in the infobox -- somebody else will have to. PaulCHebert ( talk) 04:54, 23 August 2017 (UTC) reply

This article has been reclassified as a start according to Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography/Assessment. However, it needs more work on citations especially on the discography. Capitalistroadster ( talk) 00:26, 24 August 2017 (UTC) reply

That section is getting really long. Is it worth having a separate John Abercrombie discography article? PaulCHebert ( talk) 18:54, 31 January 2018 (UTC) reply

Not a bad idea. I'm still working on it, and there might be more sideman albums to add. I won't know until I compare my lists.

I've been adding more albums. It is a bit cluttered now. If the discography is split into a separate page there should be a select discography left on the main page. Hummingbird347 ( talk) 06:58, 30 April 2021 (UTC) reply
