ANNOUNCING: The Independent Ear
The Independent Ear is a fascinating new feature of the www.OpenSkyJazz.com web site. The Independent Ear focuses on recommended recordings from the vast universe of independent jazz and related recordings, including CDs and DVDs. Today's digital technology -- plus major labels abdicating their responsibility to the music - has enabled and forced a growing legion of artists to record and distribute their own product, and encouraged numerous small independent labels into the game .
Bringing over 30 years experience in print, radio & TV jazz media, plus curating, producing, and presenting live jazz events, and managing programs, Willard Jenkins contributes his keen insights to this universe of independent jazz recordings. His unique perspectives will not only include capsule viewpoints on the music but also on such marketplace essentials as user and consumer accessibility, and packaging information. Future issues will focus on jazz festivals and other vital jazz issues of the day.
Visit The Independent Ear @ www.OpenSkyJazz.com for a rare perspective on the growing universe of independent jazz records.
