Vanity page

seems like a vanity page to me. 172.149.60.55 22:30, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

I agree. I do think that Salas definitely merits an entry, but DAMN this has "puff piece" written all over it. I hope someone with better knowledge of Salas's work can do what's necessary. Migp 21:54, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

This is actually a cut and paste from Stevie's HP; check the link at the bottom of the entry and click Bio - there it is, verbatim. Boo

Not only that but it's a little...glowing. And irrelevant. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.199.65.185 (talk) 22:46, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

Could I just say that Steve Salas was quite well known in the early 90s metal scene over in the UK - I think his band was Colorcode - and he definately DID play the Rufus guitar part in the Bill and Ted film because I remember spending ages trying to track down the player. Agree he merits an entry - just a better written one.

Where reality and fantasy blur with Mr. Salas, the lord above only knows. This is definetly a "Puff Piece" and some of the events technically happened. And I do mean SOME. Island will tell you it never happened, Japan will never admit to anyone outselling the Stones? The cool thing about Stevie's pages is that they further prove that there is always "A man behind the curtain". In this case, he is working overtime. Like sex, if you want find out if a guy who pulls his thing out and brags is any good in the sack, simply ask the people he says he "satisfies". In most cases, the man is the liar. The same could easily be said in this case. The struggle for relavence at middle age is a bitch, you have to admire Stevie's sheer denial as well as his balls. The materials and content in this case do all the suffering, however. Barfbag22 (talk) 17:35, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

infobox/dob... etc

article lacks every basic fact of a bio and concentrates only on the musicians achievements. i find it hard to believe that it isn't puffery. --RichardMills65 (talk) 01:29, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

wellll, i have observed Stevie's career rather closely for nigh unto 30 years and can tell you honestly there is some embellishment here. Also, the negative aspects are not covered, like he was fired from the Rod Stewart tour. Gearge Clinton did not 'hand' pick him, Stevie moved to L.A. and was sleeping on a couch in a studio, George came in to record and Stevie wormed his way into the session and did a good enough job to play on a few tracks. The Mick Jagger solo album 'Goddess in the Doorway' does NOT feature him on guitar, Wyclef Jean, Pete Townsend. Joe Perry, and Lenny Kravitz fill those shoes, Stevie did do the 'Saturday Night Live' show when Mick did a song off the album, is this what is known as 'artistic license? The best part of the aricle is the travel description from the Rod Stewart (partial) tour, skipped cities? what do you think Rod and his band are going to do? ride a bus? The last detail is yes, the Wikipedia article was obviously written and submitted by Stevie himself, and it is almost verbatim from his website. It is not hard to track this kind of information down and verify it, but sometimes it is hard to laugh at it.Marchinski (talk) 21:40, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
