PUBLICATIONS:

Notes on publications: Divided into Reviews, Down Beat Polls, Articles, Books, & Obits. I have included anything from the slightest mention of Collin's name to full blown articles. The reviews are of recordings that Collin was involved with, he is not mentioned in many of the reviews on other artist's work.

Review format is as follows: Format: "Artist: Title," Magazine title, volume, issue #, date, pages, author. If a title appears more than once, the artist is not repeated. Articles follow same format. For books: Title. Author. Place of publication: publisher, year, pages.
