Now and again you find something really great on the net. By accident while looking for information on Lennie Tristano's composition '327 East 32nd Street' i found saxophonist James Mahone's practice portal. There are lots of very interesting articles on tunes, featuring analysis, transcriptions, original compositions as well as links to the original recordings. I have been listening alot to Mark Turners version of this tune and was very happy when i read his article on it, which also included a transcription. Wonderful stuff, with plenty more to discover on the same site.

Today I was searching around the net for a Mark Turner album for which having converted it to Mp3 i had lost the names of the artists. I searched in vain for some days on the net until i came across www.jazzdiscography.com. Its a great tool with lots of detailed information on hundreds of artists and many thousands of albums.
