Virtually unsourced BLP dating back to 2007 (!), with likely COI editing by mystery IP editors. I tried searching for sources, but only found a couple of old articles in local papers, nothing even approaching sigcov. I did think of cutting down the content to only that which can be supported by such sources, but fundamentally the problem remains that having worked for Disney for 40 years and playing an instrument simply doesn't suffice for an article.

Comment/Keep Agreed, this one needs citations. Sources found include Forbes and the Minnesota Post, Orange County register. He seems to be a legend in the field.

If memory serves, the Forbes piece was a contributor ('Sites') one, so not RS. And being a 'legend in the field' is great, if you can somehow substantiate that, which the article as it currently stands fails to do. But anyhoo, if your searches find more and/or better sources than mine did, I'm more than happy to stand corrected; I just thought it's time to put an end to this flagrant disregard of referencing guidelines. --

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,

Keep as enough substantial reliable sources coverage has been identified in this discussion to show a pass of
WP:GNG so that deletion is unnecessary in my view,
