/jazz/

I just figured it was something jazz guys do.
I organize my backlogs by first name anyway.

Check out Brad Mehldau - Art of the Trio. Great cuts on that record.

Also I just heard this super banging song on the radio called Uncle Bob by Steps (Ahead) which is a jazz fusion group with Michael Brecker in it.

Check out Ugetsu (or Fantasy in D). The Art Blakey and the Eastern Rebellion recordings are both really fucking cool in their own respects

It's not necessarily wrong it just feels weird when I read "Davis" or "Hancock" because I'm so used to referring to them as Miles and Herbie when I talk about them with my friends

monk - live with Coltrane
coltrane - my favorite thing, not his best but is my most listened of his
Mingus - children hear music
davis - all of it obviously
Hancock - can go fuck himself but I guess dolphin dance alright
shorter - haven't listened to enough, saw him live tho wow

threadly reminder that bill Evans is the ultimate exponent of French impressionism, that Lennie Tristano finished "jazz as played on the piano", and that art pepper is the man Paul Desmond wished the gods had seen fit to make him such as.

tell me why jazz harmony is such a whore for root movements in 5ths or otherwise cyclical divergences from such progressive movements, a la dim/aug, as opposed to the more sophistical, thoroughgoing compositional root movements of the more melodically inclined white europeans? is it because, deep down, jazz is music for monkeys by monkeys?

How about that Mark Turner guy?

Disregarded.
