The Jazz Fest Compilation Albums

Every year since the 35th Jazz Fest in 2004 we have produced an annual Compilation Album in addition to the dozens of live recordings of individual artists.  Each Compilation Album is a great representation of the wide variety of music performed every  year at "the fest", whether it be blues, rock, jam-band, reggae, jazz, funk, ballads, gospel, Cajun or Zydeco.   Click on the  Specials page to learn more about what's included on each Album, and go to the Buy Music page to order.
