Thanks for the posting!
I looked through the list and discovered that I don't know most of the names - and I'm a jazz musician (sax).
Shane on me.
Would you consider to post the links to the reviewa on included CD, when possible?

Hello!
I'm Tiffany and I really enjoy your postings especially this one with all the listings. Thank you.
I was also looking for your contact information but couldn't find one. I represent Massive Music America and there's a great jazz artist I would like to share with you and discuss/ review.
If you're interested, you can contact me through tiffany@massivemusicamerica.com
Appreciate it!
