Full Search
This
search function will try to match a single
portion of a word,
a
word, or a
phrase
in each area below (spaces count!). It will return a list with the closest
matches to what you asked for near the top of the page. The small green numbers
by each title returned represent the closeness of the match - higher is better.
The list returned is limited to about 90 items, so you may need to be more
specific if you get too many matches.
Example: "
I'm looking for a jazz album. Joe somebody or other... Title
was something about a horse, maybe. Seems like that was back in about 99 or maybe
98."
Put in 'joe' for artist. Type in 'horse' for the title. Also type in 'horse'
for the description area - just in case memory is faulty. Type in 99 for the
release date (street date). Select jazz.
Now do the search. Try it! Look at the match numbers to see which results were
closest.
Another Tip
Solo artist's names are listed last name first, like 'HACKETT, BOBBY'. They are
also all in upper case.
So a search with 'HACKETT, BOBBY' in the artist field will usually get you more
accurate results than a search on 'Bobby Hackett'.
On the other hand, if you are looking for an artist that may be listed only as a
sideman, their names are often listed in the 'Descriptive word or phrase' field
in more the usual format 'Bobby Hackett' so a search in this field will have
better results.
