Title Frame — In a linear world, this would be the first of the five basic frames in each of the 50 Artist Chapters in Jazz Connections. The work of noted jazz photographer K. Abe is presented here — outstanding, rare and candid photographs that show the artists on and off stage in America, Japan and other countries over a period of nearly 50 years.		Click to view

Click to view		Portrait Frame — For each of the 50 Artist chapters in Jazz Connections, we have chosen a K. Abe photograph as a portrait. These are accompanied by a brief comment by Abe-san himself, whose personal "connections" with the artists offer insights into their personalities and the friendships they established.

Biography Frame — As a backdrop for the "connections" among our 50 artists, extensive research went into compiling a detailed database of their careers. This frame presents the biographical highlights in chronological order, with INTERACTIVE text for direct access to their DISCOGRAPHY and links to other artists.		Click to read

Click to read		Recordings Frame — All in all, more than 1,000 LPs and CDs are listed and linked INTERACTIVELY on the Jazz Connections CD-ROM. Since the listings were compiled from many international discographies, you have access to many compilations and rare recordings and a guide to finding exactly what you want.

Connections Frame — This is the real heart of the program, presenting the text of the chosen artist's career associations with his or her fellows. On the actual Jazz Connections CD-ROM, the list can be hidden to make the text easier to read. All 500 "connections" have INTERACTIVE navigation aids.		Click to read
