最悪..又ギャラ無しお願いが入ってき

最悪..又ギャラ無しお願いが入ってきた..?? I’ve made over 175 podcasts, 75 radio shows, written 50+ articles and reviewed at least 100 new albums in the last 5 years, this isn’t a fucking hobby. People need to stop asking for free work, seriously! It’s so damn disrespectful, I’m not just dancing to Samba alone in my room here (Well, I AM doing that..but not JUST that..) #nofreework #freelancer #music #dj #musicjournalist #podcast

Already sold out!! But @philiparneill and I are thrilled about all the interest and are working hard to get more books done in the near future!

‘Jointstagram: The First 100 Joints’ is the first in a series of limited edition booklets featuring images from the project.

This first ever TOKYO JAZZ JOINTS publication will be an individually hand-numbered limited print run of 50 so be quick!

All images were shot between 2015-17 and are taken from our Instagram feed of the first 100 joints in the project.

The booklet is 16 pages (170mm x 250mm) and printed on 55gsm paper.

Get your copy while they last on tokyojazzjoints.com/store or click link in bio.

I miss Friday nights at jazz bars so much. Browny in Fukuoka I only got to drink there once, but it’s the kind of place I’d visit twice a week if I lived there. We all need our places to worship at, and mine are jazz joints. #japan #kyushu #fukuoka #jazzbar #bar #vinyl #recordcollection #music

It’s here! @philiparneill and I select some of our all time favorite jazz joints before each crowning our #1! Listen via SoundCloud, Spotify or iTunes!

Don’t sleep on our latest episode, now live on all the usual podcast platforms!

Episode 43: Record cleaning dentists, curried gyoza, Guinness World Records and upright standing man (not James obviously). In the final part of our Tokyo Jazz Joints Awards we finally get to our our all-time favourite joint, not an easy task with so many to choose from. We have a go anyway just for the hell of it, peppered with the usual slick preparation and professionalism you have now come to expect.

Thanks as always to Brian of groovesahead.com for audio assistance and Louie Lastic for our theme music.

Episode 42: Dodgy snacks, retired teachers, sleeping in kitchens and more... Part 2 of our very own Tokyo Jazz Joints Awards, as we reminisce on the project so far, and choose some of our weirdest, saddest, funniest and most irritating moments from the last 5 years. We’ll both get to our all-time favourite place in the next episode, but not before sharing just a few more laughs, stories and reflections again! Now live on all the usual podcast platforms. #podcast #japan #jazz #jazzbar #jazzcafe #travel #travelphotography #documentaryphotography #music #vinyl #vinylcollection #bar #cafe #asia #asiatravel
