FolkLib Index - Gourd Music Discography
(from Felton, CA)

This is a list of all known Gourd Music (Wikipedia) recordings from 1988 to date. It was founded in 1987 by Neal Hellman. Gourd has never included the release date for any album on their Web site. Except for the titles I have, the release dates are as accurate as I can make them using as primary sources, World Cat and the Library of Congress.
