article name
editThe addition of (baritone) in the title is surely redundant. Other entries don't have this. In any case he was really a bass-baritone. Kleinzach 13:49, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
Privately held material
editFrom the article: The Cologne Ring proved to be a great success (a private recording of Das Rheingold from this cycle exists to verify this)
In practical terms this means "There is secret reference material, but no one is permitted to discover it". I would argue that this is not admissible, that secret evidence is in fact no evidence, and that the material I just quoted should be deleted from the article – and even the claim that he sang in that Cologne Ring cycle should be deleted.
That's probably on the harsh side, but ... seriously, why is this hidden private recording being kept hidden? My guess is that it's because George London in fact sang rather poorly on that occasion. Who could blame him? Paralysis is not something a singer could overcome. TooManyFingers (talk) 07:34, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
