10.17.11 | Eric Dolphy - Out To Lunch
Probably not the best jazz to listen to early in your jazz exploration, 'cause it's really weird. But it's also really good. So yeah. Also,
Miles Davis - Kind of Blue
Ornette Coleman - The Shape of Jazz To Come |

10.18.11 | I like Russ Freeman and David Benoit, you should check out their work. It's mostly contemporary instrumental stuff, because Jazz vocals don't usually pique my interest.
Also, the jazzy side project of Robert Fripp, A Scarcity of Miracles was pretty chill. The rhythm section is Gavin Harrison and Tony Levin. |
Zorak
10.18.11 | will do roosevelt. I dont really like vocals in my jazz as well. |
sideburndude
