Our purpose.

The Jazz on line website was created in 2001 by Michel Essevaz-Roulet to provide access to the American music of the first half of the XX. secular.
First half XX. American music was recorded on 78 rpm shellac discs which are a humanity treasure and are to be preserve. So is the purpose of Jazz on line, and you are invited to help us to verify titles, executants, catalog numbers, matrix, etc.
We intend also to find again the names of the authors or composers, which are often omitted in the catalogs.
Jazz on line is a non- profit organisation (following the French law of July 1901.

Februar 28. 2010: a new server to make secure the website and the replacement of the too much slow pnm protocole used for the Real format by the more standard http protocole.

December 6. 2008:Some ehancements

October 6. 2008: We have now a new server which is spezialised for the streaming in Real format.

July 12. 2008: The first hard disk of the server failed. 

At first, the website server received too many connections, in particular because some hotlinks from big music websites. So the server was changed a first time but with the same second hard disk which contained the music data. Some days later this second HD failed also. So We loaned a third server more powerfull. It works but the setup wasn't exactly the same, so there was some problems now fixed.

All the subscriptions valuable at the date of the crash was updated till the December 31. 2008.
