the correct spelling is Barry Devorzon
== Fixing the spelling of his name ==.
How do we fix the spelling of his name not only here but throughout Wikipedia?
On his Web site, he spells it DeVorzon, without a space.

- A Wikipedia search redirects "Barry Devorzon" to this page, so I presume there's a redirect page with that title. I guess the content of this page could be put there, and this page made the redirect page, if you felt strongly enough about it. Lyn50 (talk) 03:58, 2 January 2016 (UTC)
- I see that his repertoire at BMI has his name as "DE VORZON", two words. Is it possible he's used both over the years? Lyn50 (talk) 04:01, 2 January 2016 (UTC)
Doesn't make sense
His first composing big hit was the rock song "Dreamin'," sung by Johnny Burnette in 1960, although he had a number-one hit previously called "Just Married," which he wrote for Marty Robbins in 1958.
How can a 1960 release be his first "composing big hit" if he had a "number-one hit previously" in 1958. Why "although"?
I think this guy deserves a better page than this.

- Rewrote that sentence. The 1958 #1 was on the Country chart.
