Topic: Dave Brubeck Posted: March 24 2016 at 22:24 |
I believe he was originally on this site when he was suggested back in 2006 along with Thelonius Monk, Louis Armstrong and some others. Was he reconsidered and removed?

The number of artists that have been removed from this site is the merest fraction of those that people think have been removed. Admins cannot delete artists, only M@X can do that - deletion requests from the Admins to him are very rare.
Checking through the WayBack Machine archives shows that Brubeck was never here.

I love Brubeck as well as that whole surge of American jazz artists that came about during those years. They were certainly instrumental in bringing about experimentation and change in music, but including them on a prog site seems a bit heavyhanded on the influential side. We might as well list Coltrane for the way he interjected Indian scales and approaches to making music into his oevre. You'll find many "prog musicians" claiming Trane as one of their biggest influences....then again there are just as many citing Bartok, Messiaen and Stravinsky, so should we list those too?

I don't myself believe he belongs on the site due to the slippery-slope situation but I was just wondering the status of him in the first place.
