Really-From: Keith Ericson <keithe%tekgvs.labs.tek.com@RELAY.CS.NET> Dave - Could you send a sample format for a discography, please? Since I've got my own record and CD collection in machine-readable form I could use that as a start for some artists' discographies, but I'm not sure if what I put in it is compatible with what you'd want in a discography.

And I respondeth publiclyish as this question hath popped uppith a
fewith times(ith? :-)
Anyway, here is a sample from one of my discographies. The format is
mine and many people might not consider it "the" way to do a
discography. Any list of albums is considered a discography and format
is up to the author... I have no "specifications" for the Archives.
most of the discographies don't have artist/instrumentation or track
times or something else. It is up to the author. Some are just year,
title, type of release.
