 The Trouser Press Record Guide   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
Thus was born the Trouser Press Guide to '90s Rock, which limits its 2300 entries to artists who have released full-length albums in the '90s.

Ira: In the years since Trouser Press ended, I've alternately freelanced and worked three real jobs--as an editor at Video Magazine, the pop critic and music editor of (New York) Newsday and, for the past four years, as the editorial director of MJI Broadcasting, a radio syndication company in New York.
