This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because Hebble is a well known composer and transcriber of many works for pipe organ. His birth year is absent from all or most other online biographies. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.110.146.56 (talk) 17:09, 14 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

The article needs independent references to demonstrate notability: to start us off there are these mentions in books:
  • Craig Whitney (15 September 2004). All the Stops: The Glorious Pipe Organ and Its American Masters. PublicAffairs. p. 133. ISBN 978-0-7867-4025-3. ("foremost among" unpaid assistants to Virgil Fox)
  • Richard Torrence; Marshall Yaeger; Ted Alan Worth; Virgil Fox Society (2001). Virgil Fox (the dish): an irreverent biography of the great American organist. Circles International. p. 34. ("renowned composer of choral and organ works whose music is known to almost every American organist and choir director.")
  • Dissertation Abstracts International: The humanities and social sciences. University Microfilms. 2006. ("The organ music of Robert Hebble is a significant contribution to twentieth-century American organ literature." - OK that's only a dissertation).
