This site is a works-in-progress. It was conceived of at some long-forgotten music event while trying to figure out the name of a song that didn't match the lyrics. The idea was resurrected on the Paul Gauguin in Tahiti while listening to Jim sing and trying to figure out which song had a specific lyric line in it. Jim thought it was an interesting idea, or maybe he was just stuck waiting for the next beer. The motivation to actually design the database and make the site work came from the desire to have an easy way to keep the magic of Jim's lyrics accessible. Enjoy!
