Listing by country

I like the 70s bands from (then) Yugoslavia remaining under that heading, as a separate country--how, otherwise, will those of us who favor 70s rock ever find them, trying to remember all the names that have come (and some, gone)?  How would we know which new (old) region they are to be associated with, particularly since the political regime at the time had everything to do with this?  The same always applied, and still does, in the world of stamp collecting.  I had a great old triangular issue from Tana Tuva.  It isn't a country, now, so it would be pointless to expect someone to find it under the new geographical designation.  By the same token, I certainly want to recognize newer artists under the country they are now from.  If an old band recorded on the cusp of the breakup, having a highlighted year function here on PA would be fantastic.  (Is that possible, or being considered?)  I bookmarked this thread: your list atop is as important to me as the contents Home page here on PA.  Thanks again!

Thanks for the feedback mate I have this thread bookmarked too; I find it quite useful sometimes. I'm not blowing in my own horn - anybody with a bit of patience here could have done it - but people obviously like it and use it. There used to be (a few years ago) a listing by country implemented in the web site; but I don't know if that feature is ever going to  be back. I hope it will...

^ Yes, it would be a good thing.

Speaking of prog in China, this is interesting:

Hmm.. the only thing Google is offering me are the P-51 Mustang aircrafts from Korean war...
