Top 50 Jazz Albums - 13 December 2015 [Source: JazzWeek] 

Here are the top 50 Jazz albums that received the most airplay on US, Canadian and internet radio stations from the past week!

Houston Person continues to hold the number one slot with Something Personal and Kenny Burrell comes in at number two with The Road To Love

You're slippin' if you haven't been checking out NPR's second season of Jazz Night in America every Thursday either via radio or online. Set aside some time this week and watch the two hour performance of Kamasi Washington that was presented earlier in 2015. If the Recording Academy's nomination process was righteous, The Epic would have been nominated for a GRAMMY
