Welcome to the Blog!
Hey Everyone,
This is a brand new blog designed for jazz videos. Let me explain what its idea is all about. I want this to be a place where jazz musicians and enthusiasts can post videos they’ve discovered, and which they enjoy.
If you are interested in posting a video, simply comment on this post and I will watch it and put it up if I like it.
This is not a site for every jazz video ever made. As you check it out, you will find that we post only the best videos by the jazz greats. I think you won’t be disappointed with our selections.
Thanks for checking it out!
