[edit]

It seems odd to me that the release of Robben Ford albums is compared to when another guitarist (Jeff Beck, Joe Satriani) released an album.

I agree. If the motive of the authors is to try to compare Mr. Ford with all those other guitarists ( who are definitely outstanding in their own right), then its a pointless exercise. Mr. Ford although underrated by many, in my humble opinion certainly is one of america's greatest modern blues and fusion guitarist. If Miles Davis, the King of Jazz himself hired this cat to be his sideman, what does that tell you? His style of playing is and has always been an essential part of a serious guitarist's study not only in America but in all other places.

Changes to discography needed

[edit]

The Discography on the the Robben Ford page list many albums that are not official releases of Robben's. Many of his older recordings are owned by others (Avenue Jazz, is one example) that release albums periodically under his name. For example, Robben's first solo album is Inside Story, not Schizophonic, as is sometimes claimed. These albums should still be listed, but I think should be under a different heading and with an explanation as to their origin. I will confirm with Robben's management team and make corrections.

Robben's Videos

[edit]

I'm thinking we need a "Video" Section to Robben's Bio.

Name

[edit]

is Robben a creative spelling of Robin, or some ancestor's surname? i've never seen it before, and was half-expecting the article to list "Birth Name: Robin...." 66.30.47.138 (talk) 02:58, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
