Guest Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 Anyone got any idea from when to when the MM ran these polls? I imagine they stopped them in the mid to late 1970s but when did they start? Any help on this would be gratefully received. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might know at the UK's National Jazz Archive F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted April 2, 2006 Report Share Posted April 2, 2006 (edited) I remember seeing one of these polls in MM around 1976/77ish so they ran until the mid-70s at least. Don't recall them later than that though. In the 70s the MM could be an excellent jazz resource. I recall articles by Steve Lake and Richard Williams discussing the likes of Miles Davis 'Dark Magus'/'Pangaea' Japanese Imports (unknown entity at the time), the sonic experiments of Basil Kirchin and discussions of rare Sun Ra on Saturn. Pretty damn cool ! There were also very nice cartoon-style illustrations of British Jazz musicians of the time (by Mal Dean, I think).
