James and Linda Moody with Phil
Phil Schaap Jazz is an attempt to consolidate a lifetime's worth of knowledge and passion into a single website where jazz lovers can read, listen, shop, and enrich their understanding of America's most important music.
The site itself is divided into 2 sections: Schaap Shop Jazz memorabilia and Schaap radio archives. The shop is currently stocked with unique items and Schaap Shop exclusives, many of which are autographed by true Jazz legends. These are one of a kind, and will not be replaced with new items! As Schaap Shop transitions into 2010 we will phase out our memorabilia section and focus on original Jazz publications, so grab some of these precious items before they're gone forever!
Phil has been a prominent voice in New York radio since 1970, and has taught Jazz music to students at Columbia University, Princeton University, Rutgers University, and Swing University at Jazz @ Lincoln Center. He has been profiled in the New Yorker magazine for his seminal role in the preservation of Jazz music, and is widely regarded as one of its foremost scholars. The products, knowledge, and radio broadcasts on this website are the result of his lifelong immersion in America's finest original art form, and represent the highest possible quality of information available in modern Jazz scholarship. Each item on this site has been handpicked by Phil and is presented with his stamp of approval and the verification that it is indeed genuine and valuable. The radio broadcasts presented on this site are delivered without charge as our contribution to the progress of Jazz education. With this in mind we entreat you to browse our stock of Jazz books and memorabilia, knowing that each and every product you see is something truly special.
