Bibliography Notes: 1967-1974
These files attempt to list every known Robert Christgau article,
in preparation for building a bibliographic database. They are scaffolding:
something we use to build on, but not part of the finished structure. Links
are provided to the website where articles are available. Entries without
links are work-to-be-done. As such, this provides a checklist for adding
content to the website.
Most of the original data for these files comes from Joe Yanosik.
