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 last year by the 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 new 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.

"Just the coolest goddamn thing I've seen in a long, long time."
