The link looks redundant... It's available from the main page (here). ---J.S (T/C/WRE) 06:40, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think you misunderstood--the first link was a 14 second cut. I replaced it with the full-length link from the official site. JSmith, I don't think it's redundant, because in this case--although the official site,Pagodaonline.com--is also an EL, it is not noted that the drumming link is there. It's fine to have a separate EL for the drumming link which calls attention to it, per due weight: drumming in the subway was particularly notable in the subject's life, per citations. This would be a case in which I would support the use of a YT video as a reference (its original location) but put it in EL to avoid controversy. Editors of this article might disagree--and I think they should feel free to do that.-Cindery 03:07, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

We might be better off linking to pagodaonline/media.php directly... it has a whole bunch diffrent clips. ---J.S (T/C/WRE) 18:50, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Per the citations in the article, drumming is particularly significant in the subject's life; highlighting that is useful; specific link of drumming appropriately highlights drumming. In the absence of an objection from a regular editor of this article, I think there's no reason not to leave the link be.-Cindery 18:57, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
