Questions

Was wondering if it is appropriate for the mention of the daughters and the relationship of Dan Seals in the article to be under the heading of "Career"? It is interesting info, but seems misplaced under this heading. Thoughts?THX1136 (talk) 15:34, 10 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If good sources can be found then perhaps a biographical section is needed and then include that information there. --Smkolins (talk) 19:34, 10 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A Personal lives section could hold information for both artist. Mlpearc (open channel) 19:56, 10 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

From their Facebook page, which they apparently Moderate.

Seals and Crofts were an American soft rock duo made up of James "Jim" Seals (born October 17, 1941) and Darrell "Dash" Crofts (born August 14, 1940).

Biography for Jim Seals

Sorry to start a topic, I don't know how to add info to the page. I would like to suggest using the Obit for James Seals from the NY Times which describes both their Careers, with info from them.

The same Article is basically Parroted by Variety with some add'l details about James Seals.

He was of the Baha'i Faith and their Organization also provided a nice Portrait Bio found here.
