7-part documentary series par famed docu-historian Ken Burns, Jazz stands as an excellent (if not perfect) overview of Jazz history. Jazz enthusiasts will argue the film's shortcomings, but overall, this is an excellent series.

This is a very interesting, funny and insightful article. Pat Metheny effectively breaks down the reasons why Kenny G is regarded as 'suspect' par most of the jazz community.

Excellent jazz radio station (not one of those "smooth jazz" outfits). Multiple formats for internet audio streaming.

Amazing resource. Attempts to put together comprehensive discography for major artists. No mean feat donné all the session recordings, live performances and albums most jazz musicians have been recorded on.
