RIP Connie Crothers
Christopher Watson
Never heard of her. Is that her best album?
Ian Long
Yeah it's a good one, she was at her best doing solo piano imo , there's a couple of pieces on this album where she plays solo. Any of her solo piano albums are a great listen .
Michael Fisher
Been trying to learn this piece.
youtube.com
I've got it learn all the way to 0:53
I have to buy the rest of the music to learn the rest.
Robert Rodriguez
>Got it learned.**
Jackson Hughes
Barché Lamsel from the Charles Lloyd/Bill Frisell collab is probably the single best 2016 Jazz piece I've heard so far but Henri Texier's Sky Dancers is still my Jazz AOTY. Any more 2016 stuff i should know about?
Gavin Gomez
>nice quads
That's a good first step. You could do yourself a really big favor by learning the chords and trying to figure out the rest by ear. When I first started out, I dug out a used composition notebook and scribbled rough transcriptions on the empty pages. A lot of it was learned by ear, and even though I didn't learn complete songs, it helped so much.
If you've already found a few albums you love, go and download the Real Book and search for as many titles that you recognize.
Also, learn all the heads of your favorite songs by ear. It's actually a fun challenge.
After a while, find a teacher and/or join a beginner-friendly jazz group.
I think it's great that you're getting into jazz. Hope it brings you to a nice community like it did for me and a ton of other people I know.

Nathaniel Sanchez
I love all styles of jazz, but man the one I can't stand is free form.
Literally just

Fastest thing I know that still has pretty coherent rhythm.
Nathan Walker
Best Blue Note albums not on this chart?
Christopher Carter
Blue Funk is a great compilation
Grayson Jenkins
Pleb here, what are some albums that are influenced by Bitches Brew?
Jason Campbell
I missed last week but I don't really like Chris Potter anyway. What is this week's theme?
Colton Phillips
Classical pieces I think. I haven't started listening yet tho.
Jordan Cruz
Great chart
Jose Hernandez
Oh my God, that poor pianist is struggling so much.
Logan Walker
One of the best jazz albums of all time right here. Also this album was produced by FlyLo. RIP Austin
Thomas Stewart
>sidewinder is pop jazz
n-no wonder i like it so much
Sebastian Mitchell
Check out Sextant by Herbie Hancock, you won't be disappointed
Nicholas Nguyen
You just suck at listening m8
Hunter Anderson
Jazz God coming through.
Step back Charlie Parke.
Jaxson Bell
I think that's more a reference to the unusal level of popularity it got for a hard bop record. It was just a good hard bop record and wasn't really trying to pander to the mainstream or anything, it just happened to catch a lot of people's attention and sold a butt-load.
Jaxson Morales
have this

Serious contender for the greatest jazz album ever made
Henry Anderson

I would probably call that post-bop, but there's no point in trying to categorize it. This is something similar you might enjoy
Isaiah Roberts
What's some more stuff like Albert Ayler and Kaoru Abe?
Evan Butler
Evan Parker, Peter Brotzmann
Angel Wood
Brody Ross
maybe Art Tatum?
Isaac Wilson
Didn't know this existed. Cool.
Landon Sanchez
nice, man. nice.
Nolan Brown
It didn't until today
Nathan Gonzalez
Sidewinder is an incredible album. There are much poppier albums then that, that's a horrible way of describing it.
Brayden Price
Got a mint LP of The Great Concert Of Charles Mingus (france import) earlier. Incredible album.
Noah Harris
some of the names are wrong on the bebop ones
Aaron Cruz
Oh here is the finished one
David Jones
>listening to some modal jazz
>it's actually post-bop
Luke Wilson
Not my tup of tea but I really respect you for making charts outside of the usual classics circle jerk. Could always use more diversity on Sup Forums
Adam Richardson
I'd be surprised if you couldn't find at least one or two on there that you'd enjoy
William Wilson
>listening to some post-bop
>it's actually ragtime
Angel Ross
>listening to some avant-garde free dixieland
>it's actually the sound of me fingerblasting your mom
Nicholas Edwards
am I the only one who can't bring themselves to listen to a jazz album when the artist looks likes a fucking nerd?
Justin Davis
Brandon Edwards
even if they're not on the cover? you have to look up a picture of the artist before you can listen to them? that sounds like psycho shit to me.
Carter Long
What statements about jazz make you immediately disregard someone's opinion?
>All free jazz is terrible
>Free jazz is the best kind
Jackson Lewis
>jazz is good
Josiah Green
I'll try some. just for you. I usually roll my eyes at modern jazz albums but never listen.to them.
What do you think of the CTI label? The have alot of interesting cool/smooth jazz that border on psychedelia/fusion at times.Do you like any albums from them?
Juan Martinez
kek anybody remember GG?
Landon Roberts
pls i need both of these in my life
Sebastian Young
Anybody given this a listen? I'm curious to hear what others think about this kid. He's technically good, but I don't think I like it myself
Owen Murphy
Well Red Clay is great and so are Jobim's CTI albums and Joe Farrell has some good ones. I'm sure I've heard some other good ones but those are what come to mind.
Andrew Garcia
