Talk:Chet Helms

message: ummmm - I agree that this article needs to be cleaned up and cited better, but NPOV?  I am not sure that I see that.  Obviously the person that wrote it is a fan, but is there some kind of controversy there?  I just wonder what the NPOV tag is about.

message: Also, if I have some time over the next few weeks, I will try and do some of the clean up work on the article.  Chet really is a pretty seminal figure in modern American music that is often overshadowed by Bill Graham's large shadow.

message: I don't see much of this in the Fillmore/Rock lore, but the Fillmore Auditorium, for a time, in the early-to-mid 1960s, was a Black Muslim temple.  The sense of the later-rock hall was entirely different and when the Muslims had it, I seem to remember pews and an immaculate, kept-up interior.  I think this may have been after the beginning of the fallout between Elijah Muhammad and Malcolm X. Next door, post-heydey, was the People's Temple, led by the ignominious James Jones. Mr. La Flamme's site above mentions this building was used as a rehearsal spot for some of the SF bands.
Since I do want to give the Fillmore district support during its present somewhat faltering, underfunded "rebirth," here's a "Short Fillmore History"  link, though I'm more than a bit surprised that any history of the Fillmore, otherwise fairly accurate, would exlude the major part that San Francisco's Redevelopment Agency (a non-San Francisco entity) played on the economic and ethnic makeup of one of San Francisco's largest residential districts.  It saddens me, and with a totally NON-NEUTRAL, OPINIONATED, POLITICAL SLANT, this site , would tend to indicate that the SFRA may still be a whole bunch of M.F.s. The "Short" history site does go into the migration of African-Americans from the South, into the Fillmore the homes of the the interned WWII Japanese; and how pre-WWII Western Addition was a highly diverse, lower-income area.  Going back further to the Gay 90s the Western Addition north of Sutter was luxurious.

message: While I understand the connection between Joplin and Helms I'm wondering if this section "fits" well within the article on Helms. It seems to be way more Joplin focused and Helms is treated as almost an afterthought within the section. Thoughts?THX1136 (talk) 15:13, 29 July 2014 (UTC)
