Dear All About Jazz Readers,

If you're familiar with All About Jazz, you know that we've dedicated over two decades to supporting jazz as an art form, and more importantly, the creative musicians who make it. Our enduring commitment has made All About Jazz one of the most culturally important websites of its kind in the world reaching hundreds of thousands of readers every month. However, to expand our offerings and develop new means to foster jazz discovery we need your help.

You can become a sustaining member for a modest $20 and in return, we'll immediately hide those pesky Google ads PLUS deliver exclusive content and provide access to future articles for a full year! This combination will not only improve your AAJ experience, it will allow us to continue to rigorously build on the great work we first started in 1995. Read on to view our project ideas...

I love jazz because as it is such an interesting style of music which involves improvisation, solos, the interaction between musicians. I was first exposed to jazz in 2005 while taking double bass lessons with my teacher. I met many professional jazz players especially my teacher and idol Mr. Ron Carter. The best show I ever attended was Ron Carter’s Quartet at Birdland in New York City. The first jazz record I bought was Kind of Blue by Miles Davis. My advice to new listeners listen to as much jazz as possible from the early years on.
