Jazz In Britain label discography This is a discography of albums released on the British label Jazz In Britain. Jazz In Britain is a not-for-profit organisation. Their aim is to "collect, curate, preserve, celebrate and promote the legacy of British jazz musicians." The Jazz In Britain release catalogue numbers are in four segments. (1). JIB = Jazz In Britain. (2). A number, starting with the first issue at 01. (3). A code indicating a stereo recording (S) or a mono recording (M). (4). A code indicating the format of the release: CD, LP or DL (digital). The numeric segment is sequential through the series of releases. There are gaps in the catalogue number sequence in the list below. These are either releases that I have failed to identify or catalog numbers that were not used for released items. There are also some releases for which I have failed to identify a catalogue number - these are listed at the bottom of the page. Hopefully some of these problems will be resolved. Jazz In Britain have a sublabel Jazz Now which is used to release new British jazz. For information about releases on that label see the Jazz Now discography .
