It catalogs more than three million album entries and 30 million tracks, as well as information on musicians and bands.

He became interested in using computers for his astrological work in the mid-1970s and founded a software company, Matrix, in 1977.

In 1990, in Big Rapids, Michigan, he founded ''All Music Guide' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
