Mid-importance musical instrument article edit

I rate this article as being of mid-importance, since it's about "a specific notable individual instrument" as required by the criteria at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Musical_Instruments/Assessment#Grading_for_importance. The criteria say, inter alia, "notable within its particular field or subject". I'm unsure of the intended scope of the phrase "its particular field or subject" in the criteria, and would appreciate guidance from others more used to rating articles for importance.

If the field in question is "the history of the development of electronic musical instruments", the information in this article is necessary for an adequate account. However, others might argue that it's not necessary to the topic "musical instruments", which would automatically assign it lower importance. If you disagree with it's being of mid-class importance, please leave a few words here. I'll wait a while to see what others have to say on the issues I've raised, before changing its importance rating. yoyo (talk) 12:13, 11 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

I agree on the importance rating. rowley (talk) 22:41, 9 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Added album listing edit

Al Kooper was already mentioned in the article, but I felt it behooved me to add his first solo album by name, since it contains one instrumental track that, if memory serves, is performed solo on the instrument; since I cannot confirm this, I refrained from noting it in the text, but if anyone else can confirm it, the name of the track is "Soft Landing on the Moon". rowley (talk) 22:51, 9 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

stereolab edit

== "English-French band Stereolab, known for their use of early analogue synthesizers, recorded a song titled "Jenny Ondioline", which was released on the 1993 album Transient Random-Noise Bursts with Announcements, as well as on the 1993 EP Jenny Ondioline. However, the song's lyrics have nothing to do with the Ondioline or Georges Jenny, and the band does not use an Ondioline on the track (or elsewhere on the album). "

well, that's got that out of the way. do they even need to stay in the article? maybe a cultural reference?
