Likely hoax. No non wikipedia evidence of this person's existence. While the cited books exist nothing on google books suggests they have the evidence claimed. Photo looks like a modern photo that has been edited (metadata says its been through photoshop but thats not conclusive). No evidence of "The great moutain rag" existing either.©Geni 02:06, 21 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have to concur (although if we delete the article and the photo, we should keep the 'Great Mountain Rag' midi -- assuming it's original... but would a hoaxer create a new song just to make a hoax seem more realistic?) DS (talk) 02:12, 21 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Obvious hoax. Quite amusing, but still... Tigerboy1966 (talk) 02:17, 21 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Strong delete – Complete lack of verifiability and likely a hoax per my observations about the image. From the one source I checked in Google Books, it says absolutely nothing about this person or the music. –MuZemike 05:41, 21 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Strong delete, pretty obviously a hoax, violates WP:V. (Also, image deletion request should be filed at Commons, since the licensing is likely invalid.) --Kinu ^t/_c 23:17, 21 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
