Searches are best performed with an entry of 'contains'; Do not choose 'exact match' unless you are sure that the entire entry will match what you type. Otherwise an extra prefix, suffix, or parenthetical expression will cause the match to fail. To find all the Al Jolson records, sorted by label, enter Artist(s), contains, Jolson in the top row boxes, and choose label (or Label variation) in the Sort-results-first-by box. Dates currently have 2-digit years, e.g. 10/16/38. To find all records made in 1938, enter \/38 in the date field. The first \ slash allows the second / slash to be part of the search. If you wanted to find a record with 'Love' in the title, and the singer was 'Patti' something, enter Title contains love in the top row boxes and Artist(s) contains Patti iin the second row boxes. Then click on SUBMIT. Allow 3 to 6 seconds for large searches with sorting.
