Unlike the other albums by the same band (Songs from a Secret Garden, Dreamcatcher (album)), these releases make neither claim to nor proof of their notability, and as such seem to fall short of WP:MUSIC; note that whatever notability the band may have, it is WP:NOTINHERITED by any of these albums. :| TelCo NaSpVe :| 08:20, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per WP:NOTINHERITED and WP:OSE. NOTINHERITED notes quite clearly that notability can be, and often is, "inherited" among creators and creative works, as well as underscoring the point that sometimes separate articles are appropriately created "in the context of ease of formatting and navigation, such as with books and albums." Absent an overall discography article to merge this content to, the articles should be retained to preserve the content, which is encyclopedic.

Keep. A quick search found coverage for Earthsongs (Jazz Times, The Vindicator), Once in a Red Moon (PopMatters) and White Stones ("White Stones has been on the Billboard chart since its release last year" - Lexington Herald-Leader). WP:BEFORE doesn't appear to have been followed here. Keep, improve, and merge with the group article where this isn't possible.--Michig (talk) 18:51, 30 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep If you bother to search Google news for the album name and band name, which should be the common sense thing to do, you'll find ample coverage. [1] Just click on the first link there and read through, the album selling well, and getting great reviews. Dream Focus 06:02, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
