I don't know of any jazz sites that have any chatter. AllAboutJazz closed their forum about 7 years ago. Any other site I know of doesn't even have a discussion board. Jazz sites tend to focus on new albums and recently released archival albums. That's fine with me, I rarely participate in the discussions at PA either, its just not what I'm looking for. I'm looking for music I haven't heard yet, especially new music.

I've been reviewing albums there more than here for the last year.
Sad to say but it definitely is too inactive. I don't mind about the lack of conversation in the JMA forum, but I've been wondering why the new artists adding process has radically slowed down. That is, new suggestions are piling up. As a reviewer receiving jazz albums I find it frustrating.

Certainly, this would be of far more interest than the 60,000th review of Selling England. Such a feature would restore much of the interest for our reviewing collabs in the wider progressive music world, artists especially.

Hi,

Or the 60,000 comment on Jethro Tull, or Yes.

The main difference for me, is that JMA seems to be more interested in the material itself ... here, folks seem more interested in the numbers game and the comments that the fans determine what is art ... whereas in the jazz world, the artists are given a lot more latitude, than the cookie cutter factory on PA proper ... 

It is possible, that PA has gotten better about this over the years, but seeing the same threads yet again, is a bit weird ... and folks spending more time on 3/4/5 bands than the MUSIC itself ... that in itself is even weirder! Not sure you'll find that on JMA.
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!
