BTW, I recently realized that the blog My Jazz World is not running anymore. I assume it was shut down by Blogger. Does anyone have any additional info on this? If this is fact, this is a sad day for the jazz blog world. MJW was one of the best and long standing jazz blogs around!
Europe and more
Soon I will be departing for my first trip to Europe and will not return until October 5th. There will be no updates till then, so I apologize.
I have put together some links of my favorite blogs and some discographys put together by blogs. This should entertain some people for a little while and I hope Buns O’Plenty followers stick around for when I return
