Mission
The goal is simple: make the history discoverable. This site aims to connect recordings, performances, dates, places, personnel, and sources in one searchable place, with clear notes when something is uncertain.
What you’ll find here
- Studio — sessions, takes/recordings, personnel, and release context where available.
- Live — shows, venues/locations, setlists (complete when known), and media links when available.
- TV & media — episodes/appearances and related clips or references.
- Songs — canonical song pages, aliases/variants, and cross-links to recordings and performances.
- Topics & articles — curated context to help navigate eras, themes, and key moments.
About this archive
This archive is built from multiple sources and is continuously improved over time. Some entries may be incomplete, and details can evolve as new evidence is found. When data is uncertain, the site aims to show that uncertainty instead of “guessing it away.”
Method
- Structured linking — pages connect across songs, shows, sessions, and media wherever possible.
- Source-aware curation — corrections are applied carefully, with preference for verifiable sources.
- Work-in-progress transparency — incomplete setlists/personnel are presented as such.
