Jazz for aficionados

@stuartk I'd like to think artists are benefiting from streaming, hopefully they are.  But I've noticed something strange on TIDAL.  On a few occasions TIDAL directed me to my favorite artists like Bobo Stenson or Tord Gustavsen but the music and artists clearly aren't the same person or genre of music and something entirely different.  It's as if their names have been hijacked.  And this goes for other artists as well. So what's going on here? And why is TIDAL  allowing this?

But I'm thoroughly enjoying JAZZ like I've never did before!

As I sit here waiting to have my car serviced, I’m listening to Han Bennink, Monk Vol. 1 and reading Agon forums.

Ain’t technology great?

For decades I went to a local record store.  Not only would they give suggestions, but if you had a request, they’d play it for you!  I also use my local library a lot. My good friend @stuartk told me about the Penguin Guide to Jazz. I got a copy from my local library and took a ton of notes!  I read e-mails.  I read forums.

All the best.

@fire_water,

I have found more Jazz and even some non Jazz here on jfa than how I and we used to get it back in the day by radio or word of mouth. And I should know cause I live in metro ATL and Jazz is all over the place in every medium you can think of. I can go crate digging and attend Jazz shows here with so much ease that even I think I may sometimes take it for granted.

Too me, jfa has been a massive depository of Jazz, especially new Jazz that I’ve been introduced to. Plus the fact that the members here try very hard to be civil to and with one another versus the keyboard bullies you may have noticed on other threads here on Audiogon. Which makes this thread a refuge unto great music, and has always been good for the mind, body and soul. Glad you are here. Enjoy and keep sharing.
