• Since this project described never happened, does it belong in the article? I removed it for now:

Later in 1979, Mathews met a man by the name of Brian Champagne. Brian was majoring in classical guitar at Berklee School of Music. After hearing this information, Mathews decided to form a band with Brian, the title of their new project would be known forever as "The Raging Pumps of B-town Dog Street and The Brian champagne project (featuring Brian Champagne) Unfortunately, brian met an untimely death due to stomach cancer before the two could begin recording.

Similarly removed this one: Mathews returned from London where he and Nagle were producing a (never released) single for EMI featuring David Bowie protege', Geoff McCormac JoeD80 (talk) 21:29, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also removed the long paragraph about the beach boys, because there was a lot of unnecessary prose. I reduced the whole point to a single sentence. JoeD80 (talk) 21:48, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The list of artists worked with is a bit overblown -- I found that "working" with Keith Richards amounted to him being on the same track on John Lee Hooker's Mr. Lucky. I'll try to research which albums he did what on soon, but if anyone knows for sure add them and replace that paragraph! JoeD80 (talk) 21:59, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why does this information keep getting deleted? He produced it. End of story. JoeD80 (talk) 22:22, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello friends. I came to this article at random to see how I might help improve it. The tags atop the page were worrisome and I would at first want to address the things necessary to get them removed. I grabbed a chapter and frankly the first sentence was way over the top on pov and puffery. And the significant things written, require the support of references. In short there is a lot to do with this that needs to be done. I am out of time this minute, but I intend to have a closer look. In the coming days I'll be editing this article with you, it would be great for others to get on with it as well. Best - My76Strat (talk) 02:19, 27 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I'm inclined to revert this per

Much of this article appears to be purely promotional and is unsuitable for Wikipedia. I believe the article should be deleted or dastically pruned. 86.128.3.213 (talk) 12:32, 3 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've spent an hour and a half today trying to clean it up. I've rarely seen such dishonest "sourcing" in an article. Most of the sources given had nothing to do with the text they were allegedly supporting. I've trimmed all of that, including all of the dead links. Qworty (talk) 21:06, 3 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This article still needs heavy editing. Thank you to the editors who have worked on it over the last decade. There is so much cheerleading language in it, it is clearly being edited by the subject of the article or someone who works for him. Editors, please use credible citations, only include relevant information, and stop trying to make this an ego piece for the subject. He's very clearly successful, this isn't the place to list his entire history. DFS (talk) 16:18, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A lot of information in this article cannot be verified, and seems to contradict easily verifiable facts. If any deleted information can be confirmed with credible citations, please provide them. Please note that credible citations do not include other wiki-style articles.DFS (talk) 17:36, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
