Great observation. As for DB's music not being available on streaming sites - that might be a regional thing for you - as when I just rechecked Google music - Bedtime Stories, Triage, Here Comes.., and Sensible Shoes! were all there. That would encompass David's official catalog (minus the Sensible Shoes which I assume DB wouldn't necessarily approve of). A Fine Mess was an indie release and his several albums of Bluegrass/Folk on the A-Tone label can be found (and streamed) on the extrememusic.com website. But to your larger point - why does it seem that DB's music is hard to find (or hard to track his every influence/participation)? Well...that's one of the original purposes of this site. Granted - the discog section could use an update - but it's at least a jumping off point. And secondly - David is a terrible self promoter. Frustratingly so for some. I'm sure others will chime in - but that's my brief take.
