Afro-Cuban jazz?

[edit]

MindMeal, in your edit summary with re-adding Category:Afro-Cuban jazz saxophonists, you wrote: Afro-Cuban jazz is a genre, not a nationality; this is referenced through Scott Yanow's book "Afro-Cuban jazz". The article doesn't list that (or any other) reference though. If you (and maybe others) consider Barbieri an Afro-Cuban musician, I think you should

  • mention that in the article (instead of simply adding the category and mentioning the reference in your edit summary), plus
  • add (an) appropriate reference(s).

Without that, this is simply a POV vs. POV debate. Cheers, BNutzer 11:46, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Under Fire

[edit]

The album appears twice in the discography, with two different years: 1969 and 1973. The discography at AllMusic claims 1971. BNutzer (talk) 21:37, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bio Section

[edit]

This wording troubles me:

By now influenced by John Coltrane's late recordings, as well as those from other 'Free jazz' saxophonists such as Albert Ayler and Pharoah Sanders, the warm and gritty tone, which would become his trademark sound, began to develop.

I am thinking to reword this section, but then, the whole thing doesn't make any sense to me. If it isn't a machine man, then what? Some feedback would be nice. Fusion is the future (talk) 23:16, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
