>>128925852Blessed thread OPThe only kinds of jazz I enjoy are guitar and piano jazz, I just don't like how brass or woodwind instruments sound in a jazz setting. As a result my jazz collection is pretty small, with some favourites being>Grant Green - Feelin' the Spirit>Grant Green - The Complete Quartets with Sonny Clark>Kenny Burrell - Midnight Blue>Wes Montgomery - Smokin' at the Half Note>Joe Pass - Catch Me
>>128926385Would also appreciate any recs for jazz albums with little or no brass/flutes/etc.
>>128925852>>128926385>>128926526Time to vouch for my nigga Bill Connors. Check him out lads.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wglbzrGcn_EYou could also check out some of the more modern ''nu jazz'' sort of stuff which takes more cues from electronic music and ambient and post rock etc and therefore doesn't rely as much on brass sections as traditional jazz lineups do. Eivind Aarset is a pretty sick guitar player from Norway who's well worth checking outhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7VJRapAIhg
>>128926619Appreciate the recs anon, will look into
>>128926385>>128926526Bill Evans and Jim Hall's Undercurrents is a classic. Also, you might like Like Minds by Gary Burton
does anyone know the answer to this? duckduckgo search assistant seems to be struggling, it just keeps switching between kind of blue and time out, both of which has sax on them
ive tried to rephrase the question in a bunch of ways but i havent gotten any sane answers yet
>>128926619>Bill Connorswhat a rare mention.i liked him a lot on that one Return to Forever album but the later half of his solo work is an unapologetic (and inferior) Holdsworth rip-off which i thought was kinda lame. still respect to him for figuring that shit out as soon as it came out when many needed decades.

Friendly bump
>>128928410my queenhttps://youtu.be/TWKrQQSaoxw?si=uD934n5ftWf5b6ROalso Kenny Burrell soul lament, Wes Montgomery guitar on the go, Jim Hall in generalHalvorson had this cover of old folks that was removed from spotify for some reason, but its one of my all time favorite pieces
not exactly jazz, but I've been listening to bola sete a lot latelyhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3geO4DLAleg>>1289284103+3 with the tomeka reid quartet was pretty good
>>128928151I don't know but probably Song for my Father
>>128928151probably koln concert
>>128933891but joe henderson plays sax on that one? i figured out that its probably portrait in jazz but that doesnt have guitar on it. it might be a louis and ella album where he doesnt play his trumpet but i dunno if that exists
>>128926385Midnight Blue is my all time favorite jazz album period, it's so fun.
I like Miles Okazaki. He did Monk on guitar a while back among some other good projects.https://youtu.be/Z0LuJ2U8DQ0?si=JAynBw8wC1Z6yAFx
>>128936850yeah i dont really listen to a lot of solo guitar stuff but his monk stuff was great

>>128925852You guessed it... The one and only, the late, great Grant Green.Our wedding reception was basically my humble tribute to GG.It's the only artist along with Coltrane, Les Paul and Bill Kirchen that's never left our cars usb stick thingy's Playlist.I'm obsessed with vintage ES-330s because of him, but he apparently hated his.Thankfully I'm also obsessed with vintage epiphone archtops...
the friendliest bump
jazz guitar sucks. it’s no coincidence that jazz became soulless wank when guitarists arrived

>>128925852Is it worth making a Jazz themed Discord to gather up all the Jazzfags on here?
