Nice OP! Was toying with doing something similar for a while, but was intimidated by the vast amount of ground that needed to be covered. Is it ok to post favourites/recommendations in the thread? It's not as if SA is exactly overflowing with Jazz fans and posts in the general threads have a tendency to get lost pretty quick.

I like his Masada work best, here's the first part of a track; with the awesome Marc Ribot on guitar. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLRcr5An5xY Azure_Horizon posted:I don't mind. That's exactly what we need to keep the discussion going. Kind of sad that there aren't a lot of jazz fans around here, though. Probably old hat to most people here, but if you haven't heard of them you have to listen to Soil & Pimp Sessions, a super energetic Japanese club band. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pA0mlPiwszo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQMgXPFzdg8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6f5_KV0-a2k&feature=related e: And while I'm recommending things, here's Khan Jamal master of the vibes, an instrument I've always hated since seeing some lovely blowhard play terrible muzak bullshit years ago in some club. I no longer hate vibes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gplS64LwBzg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHegNm1ffCE BeigeJacket fucked around with this message at 16:30 on Nov 7, 2011 |

Hey Pas2, where's good place to start with Charlie Mingus? Really dug that tune you posted earlier. The only thing I have at the moment is some Mingus Big Band live records, which are really great.

I posted this in the recommendation thread, but I'm thinking I'll have more luck here.me posted:.... I've always been interested in the fretless bass (at least I think its a fretless bass) since I first heard it on the soundtrack for some Wong Kar Wai film. Also some dudes making a biopic of Miles http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/2011/nov/10/miles-davis-biopic-george-tillman-jr?newsfeed=true I think it's gonna star Don Cheadle, which wouldn't be a bad piece of casting at all.

SnakeParty posted:BeigeJacket, are you looking for a jazz player who rocks cocks on the fretless? If so, look no further than Jaco Pastorius. The man popped off the frets on his own Fender Jazz Bass. His music veils his rather tumultuous life which tragically ended as a result of a bar fight. Still his contributions on the low-end are incredibly important with jazz-fusion group Weather Report. However, if you are looking for something a little more sparse, I know Jaco has done a myriad of recordings with John Scofield and a drummer whose name escapes me...the recordings are totally funky and feature the signature smooth bass licks of Jaco, and Scofields interesting guitar tones and nasty soloing. I tried the odd Jaco tune before, but haven't found anything that grabbed me yet. Here's the tune from Chungking Express I was thinking of; the kinda bass I'm gabbing about comes in at 0:28. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iesqo_j9Hb8&feature=related Walter Sobchak posted:In the ways of modern jazz what is everybody listening to? Personally I've been listening to a lot of Sao Paulo If you'll permit me to use a rather loose definition of modern, I've been listening to John Lurie all day long, and it's been great. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tO12PNDVw9o http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6LzmWC7Ouw&feature=related BeigeJacket fucked around with this message at 03:08 on Nov 16, 2011 |

Live thread, live! For content listen to this lovely Metheny/Meldau tune. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=naIdW1_4Gtw For request; someone learn me on Electro Jazz, a genre I know nothing about. What would you recommend that's heavier on the jazz-side than it is the electro?

I love Jarrett and all, especially when he's being super-melodic but the sperglord grunting and groaning really is quite off-putting. Ola Ugh posted:
Whoa. I never really knew anything about Tyner apart from 'Dude who played with Coltrane'. Gonna go get me some of that.

Jack Trades posted:I recently stumbled upon this piece: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPYNIc_M1ng ('dat bass guitar and sax) Early 70s Donald Byrd might do it for you; although these records lean more towards soul than flat out funk. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yv8Oe9BQaN4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkLrMcYuc3E&feature=related

Sonny Rollins with Bagpipes! http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01c30k0/Arena_Sonny_Rollins_74_Rescued!/ e: I don't know that much about Rollins actually. Does he always begin his tunes with those long, unaccompanied solos before the rest of the band joins in? BeigeJacket fucked around with this message at 22:12 on Feb 18, 2012 |
