I have searched and this seems of dubious notability. Lachlan Foley (talk) 22:09, 12 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. They have released 32 live albums and this one does not seem particularly notable compared to the others. ~Excesses~ (talk) 22:43, 12 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Based on that logic, 31 articles should be deleted, as they aren't as notable as the most notable article. Notability is established by meeting policy, not how x article compares to y article. Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 19:02, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - The gig (and hence album) was important enough to attract attention in the national media and I have expanded the article from sources in The Guardian, The Independent, Record Collector and AllMusic. From that I conclude that WP:NALBUMS has been met. I appreciate Mark E Smith calling Gary Lineker "the man from Walkers" onstage is not particularly encyclopedic, but that's just who he is and it does make me raise a smile.

• Weak keep - the performance seems to have been of some historical significance, but only one source (#3) is really about the album itself. A second such source would seal it, but I think the album is probably still notable enough for an article, just barely. --ThaddeusB (talk) 15:22, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Seems to meet the GNG, in my judgment, though further expansion would be appreciated. -208.81.148.195 (talk) 16:50, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per Ritchie333 Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 19:00, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per the above. Meets GNG, and I'd say the sources given by Ritchie333 satisfy WP:NALBUMS in a situation like this where the event and the recording are hard to separate out. ✤ Fosse 8 ✤ 13:58, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. The nominator's inability to find sources isn't a good reason to delete articles. Clearly satisfies notability guidelines. --Michig (talk) 08:35, 21 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
