This article has only one source, AMG, and that is not independent. There's no evidence presented that this is a notable album in any way. Guy (Help!) 20:17, 2 October 2015 (UTC)

• Weak Keep - While I agree there needs to be more references added, this is not a hoax and WP:OUTCOMES says "Albums are often kept as notable in and of themselves, if the artist is notable."--CNMall41 (talk) 22:26, 2 October 2015 (UTC)

That's a guideline as to what is likely to have sources. Policy says we require reliable independent sources, not just directories that can be updated by the subject, which is all we have here. Guy (Help!) 23:06, 9 October 2015 (UTC):

• Would be nice if there were some !votes with a rationale based on guidelines/policies. Delete - Searches on News, Newspapers, some brief mentions on Books and Highbeam, but no in-depth coverage. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NMUSIC. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 03:31, 24 October 2015 (UTC)
