Free Jazz Blog’s 2019 Top 10s
Jedes Jahr Ende Dezember, die Listen sind schon geschrieben, kommt diese Liste und die Listen der einzelnen die für den Free Jazz Blog schreiben. Und immer wenn ich sie lese, denke ich, das alles war auch noch dieses Jahr zu hören ….! Nehmt Euch viel Zeit !
This past year has been a dynamic one for the blog: we welcomed a bunch of new ears to the collective, received over 2000 recordings and requests for reviews, and counted over 1.63 million pageviews. We reported on festivals in the USA (Big Ears, No Idea, Vision Fest and Winter Jazz Fest) and Europe (Wels Unlimited, Jazz em Agosto, Jazzfest Berlin, A L’arme, Jazz Festival Saarbrücken) and even attended a few others, but in disguise. As always, the incredible amount of excellent new recordings, from the established masters to the newcomers, along with a plethora of historical recordings and issues continues to humble and astound. © Free Jazz Blog
