List mates:

Looking for reference material?

Visit The JAZZ Discography web site at http://lordisco.com  and get some
information about a CD Rom that claims it references virtually every
recorded jazz song from 1896 to present.

Here is the propaganda about it. Costs less than $300.

The JAZZ Discography - Tom Lord
The Perfect Gift for All Jazz Enthusiasts

This easy-to-use CD-ROM contains the world's largest catalog of all
genres of recorded jazz, from 1896 to today.  It contains full details
of 136,263 individual recording sessions - including personnel,
instruments played, tunes recorded,  and more. Fully searchable, the
CD-ROM details sessions by 24,351 bandleaders and includes over 1.5
million musician  and tune entries covering over 400,000 individual
recordings.

Cheers,
Steve Barbone

PS. Just the messenger, I don't know anything about this CD and have no
financial interest in it.
