Last week turned out to be a poor one for jazz prospecting. I spent the first half week cooking, and was tied up with visitors for much of the rest. Worked on the house some. Played some of the things I still need to write about to finish Jazz Consumer Guide #15, but didn't get finished. I could dump out what I did manage to write, but it's pretty trivial and mostly off the subject. The weather has been brutal, too.

The Voice jazz poll, originally scheduled for last week, fell back, presumably to this week. More on that when it drops. I've done a little more work on year-end list notes, and I've streamed a few more records from Rhapsody. More on that later, too.

Jazz Consumer Guide #15 should be finished by the end of the week. January's final Recycled Goods should be done shortly thereafter. I'm looking forward to a little break after that.
