07.07.20 | @Zig Nah: Ascension is his most challenging work. The absence of Giant Steps is pretty starteling, but oh well. Love Africa/Bass, but it doesn't stack up, so does Meditations. |

For sure, but ALS is his peak. |

MementoMori
07.07.20 | @Zig: Perhaps, but I still prefer Ascension's unbridled free jazz approached, over ALS's more romantic sound.
@Dedex: not here I'm afraid. |
dedex
07.07.20 | :(
would've also put ALS at 1 |

07.07.20 | nice, this dude's got at least 7 really stellar albums. |
MementoMori
07.07.20 | @dedex: Ascension is just way more metal.
@el_newg: yeah, it's really quite insane. |
Sharkattack
07.07.20 | Where’s kind of blue? |
MementoMori
07.07.20 | @Sharkattack: I mean, he was on tenor sax on that record, but that doesn't count. Keep your eyes peeled for Miles, I'll do him too sometime. |

07.07.20 | Live at the Village Vanguard is top 5 material imo. |
Ryus
07.07.20 | ascension is the best yea
village vanguard is top 5 agreed
|
MementoMori
07.07.20 | @GhandhiLion: excluded live material and limited myself to studio recordings (heresy I know, especially for a jazz great, but those are the parameters for this top 5 thing).
@Ryus: At least we agree on Ascension.
P.S. tenor sex is best sax. |

To be honest: I've never heard that one before. Perhaps I should change that. |
MementoMori
07.08.20 | @Trifolium: It's far more inaccessible than ALP, which was my favourite before I listened to Ascension. The record is a free-jazz opus. |
