Alright starting up a jazz thread cuz I don't see one here. There's two types of jazz that I'm really in the mood for right now that I don't know much about. Some hard bop type stuff like this youtube.com/watch?v=M4aP7Fk3bbM
What a fantastic idea, complimenting Bill's signature sappy sentimental style of jazz with a flute. I'm in love.
Samuel Morris
can someone please articulate the differences between bebop, hard bop, and post-bop? i've heard plenty from each genre, but i still don't totally get the difference.
Angel Collins
bebop is fast, technical and not very danceable hard bop is rhythmic and pretty danceable post-bop is (basically) 60s contemporary jazz that doesn't fit into a preexisting category
Elijah Bell
They're not genres, they're idioms. Also don't get caught in the metalsperg subgenre faggotry.
Oliver Cooper
they're more like musical time periods. there's nothing wrong with learning about their meaning and origin
Jordan Nelson
dope, thank you!
Justin Turner
Bebop's pretty danceable I think? The rhythms are very defined
Christopher Powell
for hard bop, you can't go wrong with early Art Blakey & the Jazz Messengers and Lee Morgan's "The Sidewinder"
