What are you listening to?
>>130685035>What are you listening to?this is the fattest ass i've seen on an old albumthe album is pretty good too.
>>130685035
>>130685035early ellington
Oh baby you make me feel so good come and take me by the hand
>>130685035I only like ballad jazz. Anyone else feel the same?
>>130685035>>130685848Blue in Green is still the greatest moment in jazz. Been fucking with this album recently.
It's been a good week.
at fillmore =^)is anyone else here getting lost in the miles davis fusion jungle these days?
>>130686791what do u think of olé?
>>130685035The Complete Miles Davis at the Blackhawk
>>130686040that was my favorite of his for a while too, I generally like the trio sound better but I feel like playing solo gave him liberty to be more expressive
https://youtu.be/PC8t-XVvnoUI love at 10:50 the pianist forgets how to play any notes, so just starts mashing keys with flat hands. The camera immediately cuts to Archie having a smoke, as if he can't believe what is happening but has to cope. Magic of juju is where it all began for me, nigga spends the whole track sounding like he's fighting a bumble bee.
>>130690139Fuck, another fan of The Magic of Ju-ju? I love that album, even though I don't really know of much other free jazz.
>>130690203Ornette Coleman's "free jazz" is an experience. The first listen isn't much, but the more listens, you hear new things. Like geese honking and ducks being stabbed. Love that fuckin album fr.
>>130690311I feel like its the only music that's actually "good"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QmuV24I1gQhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsuRLDOHFP0
>>130687739It was good, I don't think Coltrane can make a bad album. But the title track was the best thing and most memorable by far. I can't really recall the rest.
>>130685101
>>130690029Yes agreed, he sounds far more expressive. I also love conversations with myself.
>>130690029>>130690952What do you anons think of Interplay? I like him leading a band with horns. It's not as iconic as his others but it feels underrated.
>>130691163It's underrated. Evans with Jim Hall never had a bad record.
>>130691163Underrated for sure, but I always had the impression his bandmates mogged him hard on that record. Bill Evans struggled to stand out in any format that isn't piano trio.
>>130685848>>130686040turn 18
When do you think the media is gonna do another unwarranted "THIS FAGGOT IS THE NEW LITERAL HECKIN SAVIOR OF JAZZ", I feel like they have already gotten bored of Laufey and Kamasi like the ADHD puppets they are.
>>130685035I've gotten bored of all the usual piano suspects so I've branched out to find voices and soloists I can't predict, or at least anticipate. Mulgrew Miller, Kenny Kirkland and Jaki Byard have been getting attention lately.
>>130692827I hear what you mean but choose to interpret it as Evan's being a generous leader and letting the others have the spotlight.>I'm likely coping>>130692422I have a list of albums I am almost guaranteed to love that I am saving for when I'm 60 and there is no new good stuff coming out. Undercurrents is one of those albums for me.
>>130693046Is Kenny Drew a usual suspect for you? Or what about McCoy Tyner.
>>130693139McCoy absolutely is, I never cared for Drew much
>>130692827i know what you mean, billy boy just doesn't interest me that much after the early 60s
>>130690394im in the same boat, that whole album doesnt do anything for me except title track
>>130693628I keep buying Drew's albums but never keep them. They are never so bad that I have to turn it off but I never fall in love with them. Always leaves me thinking "next one I get, it will click with me."

>>130685101This style of album cover was so great, just an awesome picture of some random model, they should bring it back.
https://youtu.be/hon6mA9PktoBest version or Nardis, by a mile.
>>130694319absolutely not, album covers that are not just a picture of the performer(s) have at least a 90% chance of being awful touristcore.
Personally I really like this series of posthumous Kenny Drew albums this label put out, they were mostly recorded during his time in Denmark
>>130695177that's true nowadays, that wasnt true back in the golden age
>>130695679it was mostly true back then too, at least from ~1955 onwards.
>>130695757nah
>>130686945now im fucking "black beauty" in the ass but i dont like how it sounds... what do u guys think is the best electric miles live record?

>>130697198In A Silent Way is GOAT Miles, aside from Kind of Blue ofc.
