Which gives me the opportunity to plug a personal favorite: Orrin Keepnews of Riverside (and subsequent) label fame, or as Bill Evans so cleverly honored with a tune title anagram of his name.

– a lot of data appears to be have been taken from discogs.com (including errors), but less complete
– there is no structural mechanism for user contribution (other than sending a feedback email)
Still, the click-through feature works quite nicely, quite a bit faster than discogs.com. It’s nice for occasional searches, not for finding full discographical details.
