Non-notable musician. The reference listed only mentions him in a short paragraph, and is a review of a concert with lots of other musicians, and is trivial in terms of notability. Allaboutjazz.com doesn't even mention him, and is possibly from a removed page.
Also tagged with {{notability}} since december 2007. Bjelleklang - talk 20:24, 31 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment He does have coverage on All About Jazz: two different reviewers there covered his 2002 debut album; I've added these to the article. AllyD (talk) 22:44, 31 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep "In the 1999 Miller Freeman-published biography about his late, great guitarist father, Green discussed in detail the difficulties he encountered playing the instrument while his father was still alive", [1] Ron Wynn, JazzTimes. There is more on Green Jr. at that link. In addition are the two All About Jazz reviews above, a review of Introducing at JazzTimes [2], a review of Jungle Strut [3] and a brief bio [4] at allmusic. Introducing was widely played [5] on jazz stations. 86.44.24.94 (talk) 03:01, 10 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep per the findings by AllyD and the IP. I think there is enough material from independent sources on the subject and his work to satisfy WP:MUSICBIO. Gongshow Talk 09:23, 4 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
