The Jazz bf thread

[STC]

I'm a bit of a new age Jazz kind of guy, hence why I'm posting these sorts of things, and I'm sure we all have our fair share of Herbie Hancock & Dizzy Gillespie anyway.

The Jimmy Giuffre 3 - Pony Express from Hollywood & Newport 1957 - 1958 album i have. Last time I checked it wasn't on youtube, shame it is such a great song.

Beefheart Jazz ? Still can not get into this apparent classic album by the Captain.

Something to rival the Legendary Stardust Cowboy

I wouldnt call that jazz. But I do love that album. You will get it eventually. Try listening to veteran's day poppy or moonlight on vermont to ease into it.

the greatest jazz album ever

efa.

 

[krisholio14]

efa.

Yeah you just might be right you know.

The word masterpiece is an oft overused one in musical circles, but that album transcends the word, and then some.

 

[krisholio14]

This album from Big Cheese records is one of my favorite jazz fusion records of all time.....

There's one other track on the album - Dave Pike's 'The Secret Mystery Of Hench' but the youtube clip has been deleted

nevertheless, The Meltdown has some of the finest, not to mention obscure, jazz funk to be committed to tape

I won't go through and find Youtube clips of all of these, but here are a few of my favourite jazz albums

Sonny Rollins - Saxaphone Colossus

Lee Morgan - The Sidewinder
The Cooker
The Rumproller

Sonny Clark - Cool Struttin'

Art Pepper - Art Pepper Meets the Rythm Section

Cannonball Adderley - Cannonball Adderley Quintet, Mercy Mercy Mercy Live at The Club
Cannonball Adderley/Miles Davis - Somethin' Else
Cannonball Adderley and the Bossa Rio Sextet of Brazil

Branford Marsalis - Eternal (Being a modern musician, I have seen him and his live shows are amazing thanks largely to amazing drumming)

Wynton Marsalis and Ellis Marsalis - Joe Cool's Blues ( I saw Wynton Marsalis with the Lincoln Centre Orchetsra few years back as part of Festival of Perth. A big band of absolute quality musicians and they worked their way through jazz from each decade from the 20s onwards. One of my favourite gigs ever)

Dexter Gordon - Clubhouse
Ballads

Jeff 'Tain' Watts - Citizen Tain ( Best drummer I have ever seen)

Jonny Griffin - A Blowin' Session

Stan Getz - Stan Getz plays
Compact Jazz (compilation)

Stan Getz and Chet Baker - Stan meets Chet

Chet Baker - Everything he has ever done !!!! Most albums I have of his are compilations but White Blues is a classic.
Baby Breeze
The Most Important Jazz Album of 1964/65

Mulatu Astatke - Steps ahead (Saw him last week. Great vibes player - known as the father of Ethiopian jazz)

Kenny Burrell - Guitar Forms

Billie Holiday - Lady sings the Blues (The most soulful singer ever. Breaks my heart to listen to her pain) My favourite female vocalist ever.

Frank Sinatra- Songs for Swinging Lovers ( My favourite album ever!!!)
Songs for Young Lovers
Francis Albert Sinatra and Alberto Carlos Jobim
In the Wee Small Hours

I bought a series of jazz CDs, each with a magazine years ago from the newsagents and have loads from Louis Armstrong, King Oliver, Benny Goodman.......... I often just grab one at randon and listen to it and swap it for another. An amazing set.
