Yet Another Bill Fox from Cleveland[edit]

There is another musician named Bill Fox who is from the Cleveland area. He grew up in University Heights, a suburb on the near east side of Cleveland. He currently lives in Nazareth, PA. He has appeared on several CDs by Emerald City, Pinnacle, Xeroid Entity, and many others in the electronic music field - especially CDs associated with the Ricochet Gathings, Different Skies, and electro-music festivals.

This Bill Fox is the true person who has a photo credit on Radio Massacre International's CD "Emissaries" and an engineering credit on Steve Curtain's CD "Wires on Dry Trees Turn Night into Day" despite the incorrect credit as shown on Artist Direct at <http://artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/links/0,,593530,00.html>. I should know, because I *AM* that other Bill Fox and my website is at <http://soundscapes.us/bill>. I am also at <http://myspace.com/billfox>. I am currently revamping my website to show all of my CD credits, including liner notes for "Four the Truth" released on the Dutch label Groove Unlimited. I also appear on "Phrasing the Air," Act 2 of vidnaObmana's Opera for Four Fusion Works (Hypnos Records).

Cheers,

The new article refers to Bill Fox, a Cleveland-based musician who produced two influential folk/power-pop records in the late 90's, and whose 80's band, the Mice, has been cited as an influence by Guided By Voices, among others. He is deserving of inclusion based on the quality of his output as well as his being the subject of a long piece in the current issue of The Believer. I have no affiliation with the artist. I am only a fan who feels Bill Fox should receive some credit for his contribution to music history.

– The article is not the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. What I'm not sure about is whether 'musician' is the most appropriate dab for this article. Schwede66 09:55, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support - The musician isn't known outside his circle. Marcus Qwertyus 15:25, 31 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Google book and news archive searches indicate about an even split between the three Bill Foxes listed on the dab page.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 00:02, 3 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
