Music videos

They should be notable pieces. However, I edited with an IP address to say there was a video made for this song. Got reverted. But they should be informative enough to be included. ChewNaChunkx (talk) 07:45, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Any comments on this article are very welcome indeed. I'm trying to hone it into, y'know, grade-A material.

This article reads like a fan page and there are no souces for anything claimed in this article.

This article reads like a fan page. Statements like this "despite a prolific musical output over his 30-year career" "For this very hot label"- Describing TK Records "staggering success" "Caldwell is frequently cited as a staple of the genre" and "still featuring prominently on programmers' playlists." This sounds biased and there are no sources. In fact 90% of the claims in this article have no sources. And this- "his tours typically include many prestigious well-attended dates at such venues as the Nagoya Blue Note and, in the early 1990s, he married (and fathered twin daughters with) a woman from Japan" This sounds biased-( prestigious well-attended dates.) where are the sources that he "he married (and fathered twin daughters with) a woman from Japan"? I am going to start changing and removing biased and unsourced material from this article starting tomorrow.--BeckiGreen (talk) 23:42, 3 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Who is Jon Bishop and what does he have to do with this article?

In the TV section, there's an extraneous line about someone named Jon Bishop. Has no place in this article. Misterdoe (talk) 17:55, 22 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relationship to George Caldwell?

is he any relation to the jazz pianist and bandleader George Caldwell whose latest cd is the 11 track "Mocus" released in 2010?1archie99 (talk) 10:28, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Blue-eyed soul?

It seems to me that the term "blue-eyed soul" is outdated and racist. Shouldn't his genre be changed to soul or R&B? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ninety2ina45 (talk • contribs) 00:34, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Close to "B" status in my opinion. Could use a better lead paragraph, extended Early Life part, and a bit larger Trivia part.--Thereen 03:21, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
