Jazz Samba with Getz/Byrd is amazing, too. Been listening to that one for a long time now.

never heard this before and i love it, thank you

i didn't realize the bad plus had become a quartet with ben monder on guitar and chris speed on drums. really great!

Really want to know how Dave King bad plus drummer :) chris speed plays tenor sax and Julian Lage got together. Their personalities seem nothing alike, but their playing is so on point.

Ravi Coltrane with Robin Eubanks at Blue Note, or..

Ben Wendel with Julian Lage and Larry Goldings at the Village Vanguard

Another absolute legend gone. RIP Ahmad Jamal. One of my favorite hip hop samples by J Dilla too. Crazy that it comes like, 8 minutes into Swahililand.

I really like With The Assai Quartet for that proper "Chamber Music" 3rd Stream I guess, vibe.

Poinciana is amazing too. He has such an amazing touch.

I've been listening to Open Studio/You'll Hear It for a while now. Most of it is theory and pedagogy, but occasionally they'll have a Ron Carter interview or talk about current players too.

Occasionally Norah Jones Is Playing Along will have some jazz musicians on.

Seconding Emily Remler. I really like her playing. She was also married to Monty Alexander!

Anat Cohen is a clarinetist.

Camille Thurman is a saxophone player and plays with the JLCO.

Hiromi Uehara, if you're into that sort of thing.

Samara Joy is a vocalist and just won a grammy.

Edit: Oh, Esperanza Spalding of course too. Bass/Vocals

If I were to curate an Intro to Jazz playlist for someone whose entry point is Laufey, then Chet Baker is definitely a great place to start. Samara Joy for the more contemporary but not outside. And of course Ella Fitzgerald in any setting.

As a survey the list is OK, but I'm not sure what qualifies something as being spicy hot. If Trane needs to be in that category then maybe I would substitute A Love Supreme for Giant Steps.

edit: not dissing the OP because it's a fun thought exercise, but where does Monk fit in? Authentic Wasabi?

Keep showing that alto love

Two ends of the alto spectrum - Ornette Coleman, Paul Desmond

And for the most laid back, Lou Donaldson https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-juHx0LdgM

Also RIP Casey Benjamin, saxophonist with Robert Glasper https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLNaRx2faWQ
