Meets neither WP:GNG or WP:NALBUM. Was deprodded with the rationale, "article seems good enough to pass WP:NALBUM with the sources indicated." Ref #1 is not independent. Ref #3 is mainly about Meat Loaf, which the band appeared with at a concert, and has exactly a single sentence about the band, zero about this album. Ref #4 is simple listing with some of the recording personnel, not an in-depth review. Ref #4 is the only source which is more than a single line about the album, and is a short blurb about the album, not an in-depth review. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 16:23, 11 December 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Delete per nom. The title confused me, I was wondering why a band was included in the Albums and songs AfD category. But then I saw that "The Nielsen Pearson Band" is the name of the album, which I find rather strange (the name of the actual band is simply "Nielsen Pearson", which on the contrary, sounds like a person's name to me). But anyways, I fully agree with nom and I couldn't find anything reliable about this album, only the standard youtube videos, streaming links, retail sites, short blurbs and blogs.

Redirect to the band article at Nielsen Pearson. The album is non-notable in its own right, but its title could be a search term for someone seeking the album OR the band, since it looks like the band tried to get fancy with a cryptic album title. So there's no harm if a search ends up at the band's article. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 17:35, 16 December 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Note - Just to make things even more complicated, the band's second album had another poorly-considered title: Nielsen/Pearson (note the clever slash). That album article has also been tagged for notability, though it did generate a hit single. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 17:42, 16 December 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Redirect to Nielsen Pearson. Group is notable for a hit single and the later songwriting career of Reed Nielsen, but the album got almost no attention. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 05:26, 17 December 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Restore redirect to Nielsen Pearson: As the page creator, only sources 2 and 4 talk about the album, but I feel that it's not notable enough with those 2. ASTIG😎 _{(ICE T • ICE CUBE)} 15:00, 17 December 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
