As anybody who's given a good look to this page may have noticed, I haven't done a particularly good job with it, and haven't updated it in nearly a year. Simply stated, when I started this thing, I vastly underestimated what it would take to do a good job. It quickly got out of hand and other projects and responsibilities got my attention. If anybody out there thinks they can do a better job, and can prove to me that they'll give this document the skill and care it needs, then they are free to take over.
I will, however, continue to maintain the Talking Heads cover list.
Thank you
