  • ... that Joel Ross spent over two years waiting to release his debut album after it had already been recorded?

  • @Mach61: Nice article! While I think ALT0 is fine, might I suggest something along the lines of
ALT1: ... that professional vibraphonist Joel Ross has called the vibraphone his "least favorite instrument"?
That bit jumped out at me when I read the article and would make me want to learn more if I saw it on the MP (and his approach to it as a "challenge" is a great payoff to the hook, IMO). Just a suggestion to you and a future reviewer! - DrOrinScrivello (talk) 22:13, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Article was moved to mainspace on the day of nomination and meets minimum length requirements. A basic copyvio check found no issues, only quotations come up. I gave the NPR article a read to verify some basic facts in the article. The article's sourcing is mostly good, although I'm not thrilled with the sourcing of ALT0 to a Youtube interview. ALT1 (which I find far more interesting) is properly cited and interesting. QPQ has been completed. Approved for ALT1. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 16:50, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
