Previously ‘Track of the Day’ ran down a chart of the ‘Top 300 Jazz Artists’ as determined on ‘Rate Your Music’. The new theme is ‘artists that didn’t make the charts’.
Next in the list of ‘artists that didn’t make the charts’ is British pianist Stan Tracey. He superlative reputation here didn't travel abroad as much as it should have but his work deserves more recognition.
