Three (3) Comments RE: this 'Starwood Club' Wiki article

First, there is a need for clarification. Both the title and the 1st paragraph refers to the Starwood Club, but then in the 2nd paragraph someone refers to the Starwood Nightclub as if Nightclub was part of the proper name. So, is it the Starwood Club or the Starwood Nightclub? For that matter, is the proper title even the Starwood Club or just the Starwood?

Second, a critique of the way the second paragraph has been written. The second paragraph talks about the Starwood previously being called PJ's, a fashionable jazz nightclub which attracted... old school jazz musicians. With that being said then shouldn't the very next sentence be written: "PJ's hosted such great jazz acts as The Bobby Fuller Four, The Standells, Rufus Thomas, and Trini Lopez who recorded live albums there." Which, of course, is ludicrous and yet the wording, at least in this context, would imply that very thing. Someone is not proof reading what has been written.

Third, adding a bit of interesting information. If you read the Wiki article on Don Costa, the prolific arranger & conductor for ABC-Paramount record label (Steve Lawrence & Eydie Gorme, Lloyd Price, & Paul Anka) came out west after leaving ABC and began working for United Artists. The article states: "In 1963, Don Costa discovered Trini Lopez working at "PJ's". Whoever is in charge of over-seeing the Wiki article titled 'Starwood Club' may want to include this little tid-bit. 184.76.56.97 (talk)JSJR 02142015 Happy Valentine's Day
