Most of the following are in Erika Hahn's personal collection and were acquired during the early 80s in used record stores in Boston/NYC area.
Titles in brackets [*] are items I don't have but are part of the JGB music compendium we are trying to put together so if you know of anything we are missing email Erika with the details such as title, date, recording catalog number. I know the internet has listings of many titles I don't have here and when I have time I will go forth and collect info on those imports, compilations, and CD works.
