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

The new number one album this week is Kenny Burrell's The Road to Love and the number two album is Joey DeFrancesco's Trip Mode. 

I've been listening to JazzFM.com a lot lately. One of the many musicians that has caught my attention is trumpeter and composer Matthew Halsall. He released a new album in October 2015 entitled Into Forever with the Gondwana Orchestra. Below is the video for the title track.  Josephine Oniyama is the featured vocalist ~ Enjoy!
