Crap![edit]

Oh come ON. This page is CRAP. Lee Dorsey was a significant American R&B/soul artist. While I'm here, what the F*** is "Afro-American" doing here? Or anywhere, this century? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.102.78.9 (talk • contribs) 22:46, 8 February 2011‎

More Nonsense[edit]

"and The Beatles Let It Be... Naked contained an extended live jam..." Where? There are lots of half-finished rock and roll jams in the endless rehearsal tapes for the 1969 Let It Be/Get Back sessions but not on the released albums (LIB or LIBN).

"...with Tommy Sheridan on vocals." Would that be Tony Sheridan, with whom the Beatles briefly recorded in 1962? This is the first anyone's heard that he rejoined them 7 years later! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.103.176.57 (talk • contribs) 13:38, 8 July 2013‎

I've removed those unreferenced statements, and tidied the article up a little. Ghmyrtle (talk) 15:58, 8 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Birth year[edit]

Although many sources give his birth year as 1924, the cited source, Eagle and LeBlanc, Blues: a Regional Experience here gives 1926, with a footnote referring to the US Public Records Index and Social Security Death Index. That is the basis for giving both years 1924 (currently unsourced) and 1926 (sourced to BARE) in the lead and infobox. Ghmyrtle (talk) 15:15, 5 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This article [2] says that he died at 59, making him born in 1926 when he died. TheGreatestLuvofAll (talk) 16:42, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
