Doesn't Naked City deserve a higher rung in the "bands" section? - Steve3849 ^talk 06:47, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

To answer my own question I see the first tier are all early bands, the second tier are bands he led and thus leaving the third tier. Naked City is most often thought of a John Zorn and then guitar (Frith's forte) is Bill Frisell. Still, his contribution there is noteworthy... maybe the third rung could be a larger font size? - Steve3849 ^talk 06:56, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tiers one and two are for bands Frith led or was a founding member of, tier one being those bands he is best known for. The third tier is for other bands he was simply a member of, like John Zorn's Naked City, and hence the smaller font. --Bruce1ee 10:28, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed "Collaborating artists" from the template. Frith has collaborated with many artists and even if we include only the prominent ones, it would still be a long list. I don't know of any other musician templates that use "Collaborating artists" and, particularly because of the number of possible entries here, I feel it's better to leave it off. —Bruce1ee^talk 12:22, 30 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
