i don't cafre what anyhoen says, machine gun is great free jazz. makes me wanna break shit. how often does jazz, how should i say this, how does jazz JAZZ YOU UP

>>51525113
>Bebop album?
Gotta be The Quintet at Massey.
Boring choice but a well justified one.
>Cool jazz album?
Again, gonna be boring here and say Jim Hall's Concertio. I just adore his tone and I don't feel like anyone bar Davis has really managed to do Spanish influenced jazz that well.
>Hard bop album?
Duke Ellington's Money Jungle because I want to post something else for post bop and I feel like I can just about justify calling this Hard bop.
>Post bop album?
Woody Shaw - The Moontane or Mccoy Tyner - Saharah
The Moontrane because I adore Shaw's playing and how he can manage to sound really technical but still give a very pleasant sounding performance. All while doing really unusual stuff with the trumpet (really big intervals, at really fast tempos really high) and his really unusually bright tone.
Mccoy Tyner because I love how chaotic and passionate it sounds. I like the way Tyner plays and it really suits this album because you get a lot of depth to the playing with the really heavy chords he does with the right hand. When he does Prayer for my family it just sounds so ridiculously full even though it's just him playing. It sounds like there's two people playing at parts of it because his rhythm keeping with both hands is so good. Also: really wide breath of influence. Who knew he could play koto?
>Free jazz album?
Sun Ra- Sleeping Beauty. It's got all of the positive aspects of Space is the place but everything is very calm and serene so it's easy to listen to and I find myself more often in the mood for it than any other Sun Ra album.
>Third stream album?
Charles Mingus - Black Saint. It's Black Saint.
>Fusion album?
Gonna say Soft Machine's Third. I feel like they don't get enough recognition as a group that was doing fusion right at it's conception and that they were working towards the same end point as Miles Davis and got somewhere close to it very shortly after Davis did.
>Post-2000 jazz album?

I wouldn't say "it's all about the bass", but almost. bass is really the instrument I care the most about in jazz, and the one that "jazzes me up"

I listened to Mulgrew Miller - The sequel this morning, and, while it was a fine album, I can't help but thinking he's definitely more of a trio man than one for larger formations

atm I'm listening to pic related

>Third stream
Jazz mixed with classical. Not really that big a genre and it probably would have been more appropriate for op to do dixieland or swing or something.
Some alright stuff though, people usually call albums like Black Saint, Sketches of Spain and Electric Bath Third Stream. And Moondog. Gotta love Moondog.

Hey guys, I am looking for some pretty specific recommendations.
I'm looking for:
Free Jazz centered around vocals
and also
Free jazz/improv that's calm and not very dense/loud

I'll have to give some of them a look then. That he stood out to me as a musician in a session with Freddie Hubbard and Woody Shaw is a testament to how good he is.
>>51526227
You've recommended me at least 4 Sipiagin album. They're always very good mind. Are you still going to meet him?

>>51526319
I was hoping to go see him record his new album in October but that didn't work out. Maybe someday. Really though if you like that 70's style post bop that Shaw and Hubbard were doing you'll love that Sipiagin album.

>>51526319
Alex is such a nice dude. Met him at a gig and asked me a bunch of questions like what my passions are and things. Really cares about the music.

>>51526384
a lot of jazzmen are good people
I think it's because jazz requires listening to others and aims to build a collective work
also they're used to play with a lot of different people so they know how to find one's qualities

>>51525113
Is there a general consensus on which jazz genres are the bets on /mu/? It seems like these threads tend to get a decent mix of styles but I'm not around enough to know if there's a preference.

>>51526640
I guess it would be hard bop or post bop

>>51526752
These plus free jazz are definitely the most popular

Just started listening to Bud Powell's stuff, which is the first time I look into jazz piano, and I love it. Anyone got any recommendations for other jazz piano players?

>>51529295
Ask JD if he's more influenced by Shorter or Henderson

>>51528913

>A night in Tunisia
I've only heard two Gillespie versions (one from Afro and one from At Newport) so it doesn't really qualify, but I pick the Newport version
>Caravan
Art Blakey's from the album of the same name. Amazing drum solo along with Workman's great bassline
>Body and Soul
Freddie Hubbard's also from the album of the same name
>Autumn Leaves
Hard to pick between Ryo Fukui, Bill Evans, and Cannonball Adderley. But I do like the piano trio version so I'll go with Evans (though Fukui is close too)
>All the Tings you are
I'll go with Ryo Fukui from his album In New York
>Round Midnight
George Russell from his album Ezz-thetics hands down

>>51529401

Lennie Tristano

>I've only heard two Gillespie versions
Nigga you need to get on the Art Blakey version of A night in Tunisia. The opening drum solo is phenomenal. I always get so pumped listening to it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHKyVJ5YfNU
Also: Quintet at Massey Hall. Listen to that immediately too. Charles Mingus, Max Roach, Dizzy, Charlie Parker and Bud Powell playing together in one of the best jazz concerts in history. Also featuring a lovely version of A night in Tunisia.

>>51526087
Sonny Sharrock - Black Woman applies to both of your requests. It's an incredible album

>>51529639
Believe it or not I haven't heard any of Blakey's classic live albums yet. Only heard his studio stuff. But I have heard Jazz at Massey Hall. I forgot they did Tunisia on there.

>>51529511
>You Liked Me Five Minutes Ago
>opening track
>dat bass ostinato
>Dem really atmospheric drums that float around the piece like a halo as a series of textures with the constant ringing symbols leaving the bass to handle the rhythm
>Mats knowing how to do demented free sax well because he actually knows his shit

Nigga you got a nice choice there. It's not my choice but I support you.

>>51526451
>a lot of jazzmen are good people
funny you say that as most of the jazz giants that we all know and love were really shitty people

>>51528913
>A night in Tunisia
McCoy Tyner's from Today and Tomorrow because it's a very personal and unique take on the standard
>Caravan
Gonzalo Rubalcaba's from The Trio because that reharm
>Body and Soul
Archie Shepp and Richard Davis because I think the harmony and melody of this tune are so strong it makes for a great horn/bass duet tune
>Autumn Leaves
Either the Cannonball version from Something Else or Bill Evans' from Portrait
Actually Jarret's version on the Blue Note box set is great. Orrin Evans has a cool trio version too... It's hard to pick with so many great versions
>All the Tings you are
Dave Ballou has a cool version...
Jim Hall does a cool version in 3
Actually I might have to go with Chris Potter's solo tenor version
>Round Midnight
Bill Evans from California Here I Come
I love when Bill plays Monk tunes. Runner up might be EST's version on their Monk album

>>51529748
Man that album is so unique. Never heard anythin like that in my life before, it completely blew my mind

>>51529596
Yeah in one of the charts I made I did a piano trio section

>>51529726
A night in Tunisia is a studio albums.
It features Wayne Shorter, Bobby Timmons and Lee Morgan.
>>51529813
>McCoy Tyner's from Today and Tomorrow because it's a very personal and unique take on the standard
Great pick. The drums for A Night in Tunisia are usually really frantic but I just really love the way they roll on Tyner's recording. The drum solo where the bass player kinda accents the playing is so cool.
>>51529831
Fire! do a really good job of making this kind of noisy free jazz enjoyable for those of us who aren't really big fans of >>51525946

That's one of my favorite salsa albums! Not too many people around here are into that. I just did an arrangement of one of the tracks from Indestructible for my Latin band. El Hijo de Obatala

What are some lester young albums that any jazz musician should hear? i already listened to "pres meets teddy" and the first album in his savoy recordings compilation, and i loved every moment.

Also, who are your favorite tenor players /jazz/?

I think that holds true for most music giants.

>>51530449
He's pretty good. He doesn't necessarily stand out.

>>51530147
At first now, I wasn't really into it. I think I tried to actively listen to it too much. I forgot all about it after a few tracks and let it keep playing, and just caught myself digging the album.

>>51531034
Salsa is an interesting genre that way. I never really listened to it much before I started playing it.

it is true that he could use a little more variety and switch from geometric figures to something else

>>51532177
thinking about it, I don't know if there has been such a successful (in terms of liberty to create his own music) bassist leader since Mingus. maybe NHOP ?

>>51532261
Charlie Haden would probably be closer than NHOP

>>51532261
William Parker is one of the leading bassist leaders in free jazz circles, who also has worked with numerous people as a sideman.

Here's an interesting piece of trivia I found out today. I'm not sure if everyone knew about this already but it surprised me when I realized it.

I'm taking first semester Latin right now (undergrad) and today I realized that the title Mingus Ah Um comes from how certain adjectives are conjugated in Latin. Basically some adjectives can be masculine, feminine, or neuter depending on context, and each gender is denoted by the endings -us, -a, and -um, respectively. So when talking about adjectives you say the phrase "us a um" a lot, therefore the album title is a joke on his name and elementary latin.
