Welcome to Bugcrusher's userpage. If you'd like to start a dialogue, please leave a message on my talk page.

I've been a user for a number of years, but have only recently decided to put more time into the encyclopedia.

Musicians of Interest

My recent interests lie in improving the encyclopedia for Canadian musicians, especially west coast jazz musicians. I have a soft spot for guitarists. The Encyclopedia needs more quality articles about Canadian Jazz in general. There are some notable names aside from Oscar Peterson! Some pages that I'm thinking of updating, in no particular order:

• Ron Johnston - Longtime Vancouver pianist, will research for notability
• Miles Black - Pages needs cleanup
• Renee Rosnes - 4 Junos
• Linton Garner - Legendary Vancouver Pianist
• Phil_Dwyer_(musician) - Missing key information
• Ed Bickert - This page needs work
• Fraser MacPherson - Needs more sources, formatting, etc.
• Phil Nimmons - This man is a LEGEND
• Kenny Wheeler
• Maynard Ferguson
• Paul Bley - Needs organization
• Cory Weeds

If you think of a musician that you'd like to help me tackle, I'm always happy to have a collaborator.

Articles created or expanded

• Oliver Gannon - Started with an excellent article stub from the Spanish Wikipedia, and expanded it.
• Ian_McDougall_(musician) - Great Vancouver Musician
• Oliver Jones (pianist)
