"I want to point out the wonderful discographies that Rick Lopez has produced... —treasure troves of information, some of the finest scholarship available on the internet today." —Tom Hull / Village Voice "A sessionography is the most comprehensive listing of all, trying to document all known sessions, recorded or not, of the artist. Rick Lopez has the most exciting examples of sessionographies that I'm aware of currently on the Web." —Joe Moudry / Saturn Web The Marilyn Crispell Sessionography was excerpted and linked on Evan Parker's High Tide, a multimedia adaptation of BBC Radio 3's "Jazz on 3" released on CD-ROM by BBC London and included with Issue #200 of The WIRE Magazine. An essay concerning research involved in the Sam Rivers Sessionography was published in a book about one of the premier jazz venues in Europe, BimHUIS 25: Stories of Twenty-Five Years..., edited by Kevin Whitehead. The discographies and sessionographies have been referenced in the revised edition of the Grove Dictionary of Jazz. Links, notations, mentions, and references to these documents have appeared on recently released recordings and in print articles in The WIRE (UK), Coda (Canada), Signal to Noise, and many other publications. |

aaahhh... Sammy. He lives on in all the corners of my head. |
A tragedy in an indeterminate number of acts. A true story. You may as well read it. |

A snappy little illustrated essay written for an Erie Art Museum exhibit in the Summer of '94. |
HARD BOIL [1985] "...as real as a blood-drained face and a drop of blood trickling down the ear..." "...short zappy bits of prose that leave lingering nightmares..." The megaviolence part of the show... Not for the faint of heart. |
