Sorry for any confusion. I usually like to give quite detailed feedback for people submitting articles, However, we have just come to the end of a drive to clear the huge backlog of articles waiting to be reviewed. During the past month, however, they have been pushing and pushing to clear it and the emphasis moved from detailed responses to sheer quantity of reviews.
Anyway.
I failed your article for numerous reasons. It doesn't appear you've read the manual of style as there are numerous breaches of it; the most problematic of this is the lack of inline citations. These citations go at the end of the sentence or paragraph to "prove" what has been said. Please see Wikipedia:Citing_sources#Inline_citations. I have tried going through your list of references manually, but have been unable to validate all the facts or add these inline citations myself; hence I couldn't approve it's creation.
Those things were rectifiable, less so is its fail on notability. Please see Wikipedia:Notability (music).
In future if you have any issues, I'd recommend you go straight to the reviewer direct- makes life simpler.
Many Thanks

I hope my advise was of help to you. I'm currently receiving abuse and personal attacks due to the fact I replied to you personally. I would be happier in the knowledge you are happy with my reply.
Many Thanks

Thank you; I'm glad to hear it :)
Someone seems to have taken it personally that I replied to you instead of telling him so he could reply to you and so has made a few personal attacks and now is making complaints saying I've ignored you and him and alsorts; which isn't true.
Unfortunately I suppose it comes with the territory of Wikipedia: its open for everyone to take part in which means we get a lot of abuse and vandalism.
Anyway; Thank you again. If you need any more help with your article, just ask. -Few tweeks and we should get it approved.
Many Thanks
