"it's the only jazz i like"

A lot of Free Jazz sucks.

Miles' trumpet playing is pretty shitty

The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady is the best jazz album/or the only good album ever made.

Sun Ra is a brilliant, innovative musician.

The Epic is one the best modern jazz records.

Karma is a good/decent/the best spiritual jazz album.

All pre-Bebop Jazz is not worth a look

The problem with Coltrane wasn't his timbre, it was his ability (or lack thereof) to play with his band.
He is a fantastic solo musician who deserves all the praise that comes to him, but often times his solos escape the band he's playing with to a point where you could cut and paste them over any rhythm section.
Tuning is also an issue, as the soprano work in the acclaimed My Favorite Things is very out of tune.
The album "Expression" was a good concept but the solos were aimless and Pharoah's piccolo work was even worse in this respect.
I love a majority of his catalogue, same with Pharoah, bitchrant over
