listen to more jazz

That is the coolest web service I’ve seen since Flickr: internet radio specifically for your personal taste. Search for one of your favorite artists, then listen to tracks that other listeners find similarly enjoyable.

In case you didn’t know, BBC lets you listen to their programme online for free. It’s not a live stream, you can choose any show from the last week and even skip ahead if a tune annoys you. Click here to launch their player, then select “Jazz” on the right. I regularly enjoy “Be-Bop to Hip-Hop” and “Courtney Pine’s Jazz Crusade”.
