Home - RIPM Jazz

An essential, unique collection of American jazz periodicals, of great importance to any
lover of jazz and its history, and a primary source reference and research tool for all libraries.

“[L]ike a great jazz record, RIPM Jazz Periodicals has the feel of an instant classic.
I recommend that it be added to the top of want-lists everywhere.”

“RJP stands to revolutionize this field by giving jazz researchers
a huge common vocabulary of historical material.”

“I imagine that almost all jazz researchers, regardless of their project,
can find references in RJP that they did not know about.”

“[C]an help reconstruct, quite literally, the career paths followed by musicians.”

“All the big names [critics]--Hentoff, Morgenstern, Feather …
Ulanov, Williams, etc.--are well represented.”

“Most, if not all, of this material is otherwise unavailable
electronically and much of it is difficult to access in print.”
