About the JazzWeek National Airplay Charts: JazzWeek's weekly charts measure reported radio airplay of current jazz releases. Participating jazz radio stations and programs submit the number of times they played each eligible release during the reporting week, and JazzWeek combines those reported spins to determine the national rankings. The charts measure radio airplay—not sales, streaming numbers, downloads, or listener voting.
