Dave Linn's Favorite Albums Of 2023
by Dave Linn
My list began in March when I joined the All About Jazz staff. Over the ten months, I have had the wonderful opportunity to sample and listen to in depth, a wealth of great new music, running the gamut of styles now found under the jazz umbrella. My choices are releases I've listened to many times ...
Ludovico Granvassu's Garden of Jazzy Delights 2023
by Ludovico Granvassu
If it is true that, like The Police once put it, “when the world is going down you make the best of what's still around," then throughout 2023 jazz fans were better off than most other social groups. In a year in which everyday news brought ever more inconceivable disappointments, jazz musicians, labels, festivals and venues ...

2023 was a very good year for creative music recordings of all sorts. My list includes eclectic music with no specific genre identifier; contemporary jazz; Latin jazz; and reissues of classic jazz and fusion.

John Sharpe's Best Jazz Albums Of 2023
by John Sharpe
From the 200 or so discs that I heard in 2023, here are ten new issues and one archival release, which gave me the most pleasure. As always these picks are entirely subjective. And take no account of the many other albums that I would no doubt have loved if I had heard them. So perhaps ...
Karl Ackermann's Best Creative Music Of 2023
by Karl Ackermann
2023 was an exceptional year for pushing envelopes. The music took leaps backward and forwards in time, espousing social consciousness while embracing fundamentals laid down by the likes of Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington. What distinguishes this year from the pre-pandemic era is the palpable feeling that artists vented in the form of fresh enthusiasm that ...
Ken Laster's Favorite Jazz Albums Of 2023
by Ken Laster
I always resist publishing “Best Of" lists this time of year. In these days of independent publishing and unlimited streaming, there is so much new jazz music being released that it is virtually impossible to hear all of what is out there. Rather than presume to anoint the best-of's, this is a list of my top ...
