I tagged this as an article written like an ad, with a lot of peacock words and opinionated claims like "legendary bluesman" (not for him, for someone else, but nevertheless). I moved some stuff around, took out most of the egregious problems, including overformatting, and left it in an intelligible state. But it still needs sourcing and the reviews at the bottom should be incorporated either into articles on the albums or the body of the article as sources, not as an indiscriminate list that violates WP:EL. It does seem that Malick is notable, but the article's promotional tone buried that and I almost nominated it for deletion. By moving the key claims of notability into the lead it clarifies what is important about his career. --Dhartung | Talk07:48, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
