The Last Post is a database of jazz people who have gone on. JJA members and visitors are invited to contribute information, obituary notices and career appreciations to The Last Post. We depend on your help to make this a comprehensive resource, from advising on news of the death of anyone involved in jazz (with as much relevant information as possible) through to posting your obituary notices on the site, all of which will carry full writer and, if applicable, previous publication credit. For submission info please contact Todd Jenkins & Jamilla Bey.

As this resource is developed, various ways to approach the database will be available. At present, select an entry to view from the drop-down list at top, or the list of most recent passings below, or view the full alphabetized contents.
