Group Labels
BANDS A-Z
This index is very much a work in progress and at present many bands have multiple entries. For example, there are separate entries for Orch Sega-Sega and Sega-Sega Band as these are the ways the group was identified on different records.
Until I find time to overhaul and consolidate this directory, I recommend using your computer’s search facility to help you find the bands that interest you.
Finding pictures of bands isn’t easy, so apologies for the lack of visual stimulation. I’ll add more images as I find them.
