On this page, I've recorded most of the discography changes along the way for the last several years. Before mid-1998, I didn't keep track of them. Generally, whole numbers indicate complete re-workings of the discography in design or layout. Decimals indicate the addition of one or more discography items. Letters indicate corrections or the addition of information to items already listed.
Cheers!
Carl
