Now Playing on AccuJazz - 3/3/11

As usual, it's been a little while since the last Now Playing post. Also as usual, there is a great deal of great new music playing on AccuJazz's channels to let you know about. This most recent batch includes lots of random stuff that has been sent my way as well as music specifically acquired for the Best of 2010 channel. Album titles are links to purchase, and I've listed the AccuJazz channels on which you're most likely to hear each album. Most all new releases are also playing on the Main Channel and the New Releases channel. Why not go ahead and launch the New Releases channel right now as your soundtrack to perusing the blog post?
