Delete but. I thought the same, but the question is whether: "Taylor discovered that his song "Marie Laveau" had become a hit, recorded by Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show in 1971 and Bobby Bare in 1973. In 1975, over 12 years after it was written, Taylor and his co-writer Shel Silverstein received a BMI Songwriting Award for the song." means that subject passes WP:GNG due to receiving an award.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete, I doubt that the "BMI Songrwiting award" is a prominent enough accolade to pass WP:NMUSIC criteria 8. Devonian Wombat (talk) 22:46, 15 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
