message: The link to Eddie Henderson on this page points to an article about Eddie Henderson a retired US Soccer player. Has the original article about Eddie Henderson the trumper player been over written ? Mick Ekers 22:44, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Need photos from Hancock's early career

message: Does the Hancock biographical article really need the paragraph "Synthesizer player Patrick Gleeson, one of the first musicians to play synthesizer on any jazz recording, introduced the instrument on Crossings... Hancock started to play synth himself and unlike Gleeson, he plays it as a melodical and rhythm instrument just like electric pianos."? More relevant to the Gleeson biography than here?AllyD (talk) 22:27, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Long paragraph on Patrick Gleeson

message: Talks about Herbie "leaving" Grinnell before saying anything about him going there.

message: First of all, as someone else noted four years ago, all the photos of Herbie are recent. There should be one of him from the 60s, one from the 70s, etc., according to the section. More importantly, there are three pics of him playing keytar, and not a single one of him playing piano! Trust me, the amount of time Herbie spends playing keytar at any given concert is relatively small - pretty much only when he plays Rockit or Chameleon. Seriously, there is no need for three friggin' keytar pics from the mid 2000's.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.21.3.45 (talk) 11:03, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

message: How is Hancock a  composer and pianist? He is currently in 11 such categories. Are any of his compositions categorized as classical? Did he play classical piano music after his teens? More importantly, are "Classical composer" and "Classical pianist" defining categories for Hancock? ISTM he's not, and I suggest to remove those categories. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 06:00, 1 February 2022 (UTC)

message: There is no reference to the album “Treasure Chest”. Great album! 1974, Between head hunters and thrust. It does not appear in the bio, discography, and does not appear to be a standalone page. 2603:6000:8000:1971:54C:A8A4:E47D:D7E8 (talk) 18:06, 16 June 2022 (UTC)
