Hi Peter, Thanks for your e-mail.
I did some experimenting and finally devised an easy
system to use in cataloging.
I simply made a folder labeled Music File. Then
started a simple list, listing songs by each alphabet
letter. Also I added pertinent notes for each one
listing artist, CD number location, year originally
recorded, written by, and any other notes pertinent to
that particular song. This way I can also go to the
FIND on that particular folder, and also search for
artists by name as a cross-reference.
As you can imagine, this is a continuous ongoing
process, and really a labor of love. I still have
around over 6,000 more songs to catalog, burn to CD
for preservation from tapes, HDD,records, etc.
I managed to amass them since the early 50's when I
first started working at a radio station while I was
in Jr High school. I had also obtained my ham radio
and commercial licenses when I was 14 yrs old. I
played music from FL to SoCA and acquired them from
there, as well as used collections. Also assisted in
producing shows, where I met and got to know many of
the artists and producers, who personally gave me
copies and original demos they had made.
I have only Originals (with a few remakes here and
there, and some earlier 40's that were real big.Very
few after the 60's.
The DJ record hops I give are only in this category. I
just plan by request.
