[2] The publication has been acclaimed for containing a wealth of early historical material on jazz.

[3] And although Storyville was not officially a peer-reviewed journal — in part because, other than music librarians, few jazz scholars existed in academic research in 1965 — it was, nonetheless, peer-reviewed in reality by well-informed jazz enthusiasts, discographers, musicologists, and the like.

[2] Separately from the magazine, Storyville Publications published books about jazz, notably discographies.

Included were Wright's own works, the standard discographies, two volumes of Eric Townley's Tell Your Story; A Dictionary of Jazz and Blues Recordings 1917–1950, Tom Lord's bio-discography, Clarence Williams (1976), and several biographical and autobiographical memoirs of historic musicians.
