Barbara Bruckmüller Jazz Orchestra, feat. Aruán Ortiz: A Chain of Moments
by Artur Moral
Julio Cortázar's Rayuela (1963), Mark Z. Danielewski's House of Leaves (2000) and Chris Ware's Building Stories (2012) are novels--both written and graphic--that stand out, not just for their literary merit, but also for the various ways readers can engage with them.

Jazz 625: Art Blakey & the Jazz Messengers
On March 7, 1965, Art Blakey & the Jazz Messengers appeared on the BBC-TVs Jazz 625, hosted by Humphrey Lyttelton.

Jean Toussaint: Live At The Jazz Cafe 091218
by Chris May
Most times, the transatlantic flow of jazz musicians is from east to west. Less frequently, as with Jean Toussaint's relocation from New York to London, it is contrariwise.
