The reason I wanted to do this is my fascination of all the independent and local labels that where into the music I love. Every time I have to explain to friends or my students that soul was/is bigger than Motown Stax and Atlantic, I wish I had a document, web page or a book that could show me all this if you see what I mean?
So, the job I wanna do is not to make a complete label discography of each label, but a "complete" overview of all the soul labels trough states and cities, and then later try get an scan of each of them. And I'm gonna need all the help I can get from you guys!
As Dave are saying it might take years and probably never be finished, but it will keeps us out of bother and we will learn a lot along the way.
