Has anyone found any notable jazz blogs?

I think sgraham might be Steven Graham, the editor of the UKs JazzWise magazine, responsible for a Blog I've come across here .

sgraham · April 9th, 2003, 09:46 AM

Correct. I set up the Jazzwise blog (www.jazzwise.blogspot.com) a couple of weeks ago and since then it's been a good way to break news items and voice general opinions and cover current topics. If anyone wants to take part e-mail me on stephen@jazzwise.com and I'll send an invite by e-mail.

i don't know about 'notable,' but i've recently started a jazz blog with a friend. it's at jazzthinks.blogspot.com

Thanks for the suggestions so far.

I've got a music blog, Hemispherical, which has some jazz coverage now and will have more. (Not that it falls under the "noteable" heading!)

Some Latin American jazz mags have blogs -- in those cases, they really are jazz blogs -- with breaking news, gig info. (including last-minute changes, etc.). Makes me wonder why none of the N. American mags have decided to add this feature to their web sites...

I have, and I've enjoyed Bret's posts very much -- though I'm not sure I'd call it a "jazz blog" per se.

Give it some time to develop. He's only made a handful of posts.

Hmmm...notable? Questionable. But I have one going at http://www.jazzwriter.blogspot.com

jazzundone · November 21st, 2004, 10:08 PM

I've just started one up at http://jazzundone.blogspot.com. Not much there yet, but I'll be working on it.

At Greghesterjazz.com we're trying to spotlight the local jazz scene with articles about musicians, venues and general goings-on, but news of national interest is also welcome.We also review jazz albums (some of the more obscure artists who may not be familiar to most folks) and again, we welcome comment or additional content or ideas. We have some music sampling and lots of photos.

Check us out: www.greghesterjazz.com

i pulled the plug on bret primack's blog and converted it into a column. see...

i wasn't happy with the word press software (it's free for a reason) and it made more sense to use the aaj publishing system to post his articles.

Very grateful for this thread. ALready familiar with hemipsheric (I think notable is an apt description) and I'm in the process of checking outthe others.

I humbly offer my own fledgling effort - jazzofonik.blogspot.com for consideration. Jazz Times editor Chris Porter also runs a cool site (The suburbs are kiling us ) at christopherporter.com that covers music from diverse sources in addition to other views

that said, most of the entries here are on blogger. Any other blog hosts with good jazz sites?

Allow me to shamelessly promote my own jazz blog centered in the San Francisco Bay Area.
