"This site is dedicated to traditional jazz and is all in French. (No real
need to speak French to understand). Some sections are still under construction.
It has a forum, where people may post
a message, for example announcing a concert, debating on a specific subject,
or posting documentation. Under the book section, it displays a lot of jazz
books covers, with a small description of the contents of that book. In the
recordings sections, it displays a large number of CD covers, 33rpm LPs,
CD-ROMs, etc. However, this section is at the moment rather heavy and we are
planning a spring-cleaning operation. Also, there is a photo gallery with
quite a few photographs of current musicians, mainly French. We are still
adding and updating this site. You are invited to come and visit us. So long."
