Leadership changed hands

 

  • Leadership changed hands

    Hi all, I noticed that the previous leader had apparently abdicated, and so I volunteered. Since the group "ain't broke", don't expect any jarring change.

    One thing a leader can help improve is the connections, which are currently light. I'd really like to add some label connections, especially since there is presently no way in the new site design to tag individual labels. So if you have some suggestions- whether original labels from the 1920-30s that released jazz, or preservation-type labels that keep the good stuff alive and well- I will happily link them to the group.

    Something I can't change, and don't want to: The group radio is already very enjoyable thanks to everyone's excellent tastes, thanks! :)

  • Update: Artist connections are a bit fuller now. The tag radio of them is in development.

  • Dear leader,
    I'm missing one of the most important labels in reissuing old jazz: the French label Classics.

    I've also a few suggestions for artist connections:

    Charlie Barnet, Count Basie, Roy Eldridge, Lionel Hampton, Cootie Williams

    Keep up the good work!
