Recommended to any working artist, regardless of genre.
Don’t mean to sound like a freak, but it’s a miracle […]

Anyone uploaded those sheep hearding contests to youtube?
I know youtube has.
But this is about Jazz, not sheep.

BTW, thanks Tigg-
your expeditious reply is why I come here.
Marmite.

I will not disrupt this […]

Sleep?

“emoji” being an ancient Japanese word for iconography. Not at all based on the english root word emotion/emotional/emote
Pure coincidence.

It’s so tricky right?
I’d call it FJ to be safe, but man…

So a definition of “Jazz”

There is nothing more pleasurable than hearing a great artist speak eloquently about his craft. About the process.
To be able to create is one […]

The above comment is completely in-correct.
This is a “blog” about jazz after all.
Please don’t mention V Morrison.

God dammit Man, were the bullwark. Don’t believe me? Google it.
Britain is lost. I love you people, but this is your folk music. No one cares anymore.

I’m tapped out.

Yesterdays news.

I gotta go to bed (california dreaming) this is why I […]

This is like, in no way, an echo chamber. Nope. Definitely not. Robustness fer sure.

My appetite is whetted with Tiggerlion’s assertions that Steely Dan produced much FFJ.

Some beautiful low hanging fruit.
“Fake jazz”

and judging from the list in your OP, McCabe and […]

Have you ever seen any late Melville films? Ice cool […]

Right… so the “spoken word” stuff is what? Other people speaking Bob Dylan’s rants from the stage? It’s all a bit vague.
Once upon a time there was footage on youtube of Bob predicting fire and brimstone on […]
