Recorded on this Day of the Year:

(Page Created: 2001-06-27 - Last Updated: 2001-06-28)

 

This list was compiled through the good efforts of Ray Stadt from his own personal collection of jazz recordings, many thanks to Ray for making it available for this site. It is a unique document in that the material is listed by recording date, not by artist or label, as is more common for sessionigraphies. The bulk of the recordings noted here are released on CD or LP, or some other commerically released media. However, there are also some sessions noted which are available only as private recordings, retained in the collections of prvate collectors. These are most often only availabe through barter exchanges. Trading networks can be located on the internet, by using most search engines, e.g., google.

Any suggestions for corrections, additions, or ways to supplement the information, please email to here. Thank you.
