The Black Classical History Of Spiritual Jazz 1955-2012: a 12-hour music mix [via Aquarium Drunkard]
It took about 30 seconds for it to start for me (luckily I left it open in one window while I was trying other browsers, and suddenly it was playing).

Yup, working fine for me. I'm a half hour in, and seem to have spontaneously grown a dashiki and a lot of clunky silver jewelry.
This is great stuff -- thanks!

Oh, awesome! Spiritual jazz isn't usually isn't in my wheelhouse but I'd trust Aquarium Drunkard with my firstborn so I'm gonna be listening to this today.

It started playing for me after I disabled Adblock and Flashblock, but after about four seconds it tells me an error occurred. Tried it in another browser and it counts up to 4 or 5 seconds with no audio but then the count goes back to zero. It's a shame cause this is right up my alley. Hopefully it's just getting hammered with MeFi plays and will work better later.

The player is acting up for me, and there's no download button that it seems should have appeared once I shared it on Google Plus, so I don't feel too bad about trawling through the page source and getting the download link.

It started right up for me – and I listened to the first hour or so before posting – but the direct download link at Aquarium Drunkard doesn't seem to do anything.

Seems like the archive.org CDN is a bit flaky. I've mirrored it, just waiting for the transcode to finish.

I'm surprised there are so many songs. I would have expected 12 hours of spiritual jazz to be 10-15 songs.

oh man, i downloaded that stanley crouch album a while back, and haven't yet listened -- the the idea of hearing 9 hours of music just to GET to the crouch track is perversely appealing. i'll go this route!
the ideal companion to this (fantastic-sounding) collection, it seems to me, would be a psych-jazz-funk mix of equal length: 70s miles, mwandishi, mclaughlin, julian priester, gary bartz, roy ayers, horacee arnold...

Only 90 minutes in and this absolutely fabulous. I don't know what I was expecting, but I did not imagine it would be this cool. "Spiritual Jazz" scared me off a bit, but "Aquarium Drunkard" made me take the chance. Thanks!
