362 and counting, with still more to visit….!
It’s been another good year so far in 2025, with evermore jazz joints scouted, visited and now profiled! (Well, the Tokyo Metro Area ones are profiled at least..2026 New Year’s resolution is to get started on a full country list) Check the Directory for the latest entries.
I’m also slowly going through the Directory to update every single bar, kissa, club (and the few record shops listed). Many places have closed or changed locations/owners over the years, or even added new social media pages. If you see a joint that hasn’t been updated yet but are interested in going there, let me know and I’ll get on the case right away!
Also be sure to catch up on all the Tokyo Jazz Joints Podcast episodes for more detailed chats on the joints, and/or follow me on IGram @mrokjazztokyo for more frequent news.
Now, on to 400 and 500…!
