anyone else who’s into jazz, drop yer favorites here. i’m most into the avant garde/hard bop type stuff, i.e mingus, monk, ornette coleman, pharoah sanders, eric dolphy, roland kirk……..blah, blah………anyhoo, just curious to see what other jazz fans dig……
I like alot of hard bop stuff now more then free jazz but still like some free jazz sometimes though;all the stuff on Prestige,Riverside,Bluenote,etc. is mostly what I`ve been into more recently.
Clifford Jordan is on tenor sax,John Handy on alto sax is the guy who comes in later and goes crazy! <img> <img> Jane Getz on piano,Mingus on bass and Dannie Richmond;definitely one of the best jazz albums ever in my opinion.
never really got into jaco all that much (but never really listened to that much either). i have one album of him and al dimeola(sp?), but i haven’t listened to it in years….maybe i’ll dust it off and give it a fresh listen. <img>
I`m with WL,I never got into Jaco that much either,or Weather Report;I have Jaco`s first solo album though,some good stuff on it like the Charlie Parker tune(Donna Lee) and Herbie Hancock`s playing.Jaco also played on alot of Joni Mitchell`s 70`s albums and Pat Metheny`s first album if you did`nt know that.
