Navigation Help

Dear friends,

First of all, all information is compiled to the best of my knowledge, but errors remain reserved!

in case you do not find what you are looking for, please allow me to give some hints. The left hand menu is the best way to navigate through the IAJO web site. If you don't see this menu, because you have come directly to this page, please go first to the homepage.
 
You are looking for:

organists

The organists are filed under the countries of his/her origin, select the country in the section "Jazz Organ Scene", you will see a list of organists in alphabetical order of their surname. If you do not know the country, please use the search function (in the menu "Search & Find"). Example: You are looking for Larry Young, you will find him under "Jazz Organ Scene" -> USA U-Z.

albums, CDs

Albums and CDs are listed on the organists' pages in the order of recording/release dates. From 1996 onwards, there is also a section "New Releases". Choose the year and you will see a list of albums in the order of their head artists (that need not necessarily be the organist). Here, each album has its own page with a small cover picture. The albums are filed under their year of release. If you do not know it, please use the search function. Example: You are looking for Tony Monaco's "Groove: Blue", you will find it under "New Releases" -> 2015.
All albums listed in the discographies of the organists are contained in the archives of the IAJO, be it as LPs, CDs or digital copies.
 
Reviews that aren't tagged with a name are written by me, Jürgen Wolf.

 

audio

See the section "MP3 Samples". All music files offered for download on this web site are authorized by the musicians and/or record companies. They may be downloaded for private use only and must not be resold or used in any other way! You will find a list in the order of the organists. You can listen to the music by clicking on the corresponding speaker symbol. Maybe the player does not start automatically. Either your browser does not support autoplay or you have to enable autoplay in your browser's options. Also it can happen that your browser does not allow playing audio or video files at all due to security options. You have to explicitly allow this feature. Have a look in your browser's options.

 Starting with 2021, I have installed Spotify and Bandcamp links. You can listen to complete albums on Spotify/Bandcamp (if available), it is completely free of charge. For Spotify, please follow the instructions on their web site, if you have no premium account.

Be aware that Spotify will include some promotion from time to time. I point out that I do not participate in any way in this promotion. Also, I do not have any contract with Spotify or Bandcamp or any other streaming services.

In some cases you are able to regard the video and/or download it. In most cases the list provides an overview of the videos in the archives that cannot be offered for copyright reasons.
