Lost worlds and ports of call

Free Jazz Downloads

I’m trying to minimize surfing while working on the Fall issue of Prometheus, but while wasting time elsewhere trying to add cover art to some iTunes albums, I stumbled upon a site that lets you sample tracks via free downloads, for jazz fans only, I guess. All available by permission from artist or record company, and all in the mp3 format. No apparent DRM. Probably friendly across many digital jukeboxes. There are currently 421 available downloads. I’m hoping this will lead to me discovering cool new jazz, as my tastes tend to be stuck in the 1950s and 1960s in that genre…

    If you are looking for something newer try Mulatu Astake and his Ethiopian jazz. I heard some of it in the Jim Jarmusch/Bill Murray movie Broken Flowers last year, tracked down some more of it and thought it was excellent.
