I don't think I have a favorite, but do yourself a favor and listen to this.

>>75103451
Remember that song with crying babies and Ornette's chanting? He was truly something else. And the first songs with a female vocalist? I definitely have to give this album another listen, because it's largely impenetrable.

Eric Dolphy is a fucking god.

He makes sounds on the bass clarinet you didn't even know were possible.

Shame he only died because he was racially profiled, we could've had many more years of genius.

>>75108322
never heard of that Ornette album desu, but the Coltrane one is just a duo album between John's sax and a really great drummer and shamefully idk his name. But they just solo together the entire time and two-person jazz doesn't get much more extreme, Coltrane does some wild shit and the drummer does an impressive job sticking with him. I'm gonna check out that other album though

Where should I start with jazz? I just recently listened to In The Court of The Crimson King for the first time, and I know its not a jazz album but it has some jazzy elements I never knew I liked, especially in the first song. Any suggestions?

As you can probably gather, I'm not huge on jazz
Any recs on similar stuff to this, by the way? Free jazz but not completely bonkers, more like swing and bebop or whatever with free jazz elements. Something you can groove to but suddenly goes into insane dissonant sax solos.

Patrician choices

does anyone knows the name of this album? it was a live album from 5 jazz legends, I believe Coltrane and Mingus were there also Max Roach , it was recorded in a bar the same night an important box fight occuring so the audience just went there to see it and you can hear them scream and celebrating behind the music

all I remember is that they played Salt peanuts

Jazz at Massey Hall
Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, Bud Powell, Charles Mingus, Max Roach

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6OzGbp6wgpE

apparently even Dizzy kept popping off the stage to check on the Rocky Marciano/Jersey Joe Walcott fight that took place simultaneously

Wayne Shorter's Speak No Evil is a recent favorite of mine. Eric Dolphy's Out To Lunch really means quite a bit to me recently. I really believe in what he and his co-conspirators are doing there. I need to re-examine some large group free stuff and see if there are new dimensions for me to explore, maybe those are like exponentially more mindblowing. Those records aforementioned are like some of my recent favorites in a more strict sense of the idiom, but as a guitarist with a big personal investment in popular music I still think shit like Bitches Brew is life-changing stuff. I dunno I'm being really vague and circumspect while also sounding pompous. I'm glad y'all like this music, I love music guys.

>>75113388
see, like I even misused circumspect there. whatever.

>implying people genuinely enjoy jazz and dont just pretend to like it so they can perceived a certain way because deep down they that they're boring and pretentious

its fucking wallpaper.

>>75113566
Pretty sure it's all subjective and you definitely can't call it objectively crap.
I mean really are you going to say the musicians are not skilled?the production quality not superb?
What makes it crap per se?
You must just not like improv

>>75113834
Craig Taborn is an extremely skilled player but he is brought down by Mats Gustafsson who is an extremely one dimensional and limited player who relies on cheap tonal tricks to cover up the lack of any other dimensional depth to his playing.

Free improv can be great but all it takes is one lousy player to completely ruin it (even moreso when it's duet improv)

I feel it, I happen to like mats gustafsons style a lot and find his tones very appealing but to each his own.
Kind of a heavy jazz player. He's Swedish so what can you expect they like slow heavy sounds lol

/mu/'s taste in jazz is fucking horrendous, but what else is new?

>>75109754
Yo, I wouldn't go for classics first. It might be... I don't know, a bit hard. You have to listen to some more comfy jazz first to enjoy the classics imho. I started with Frank Zappa. Like Hot Rats, The Grand Wazoo and others. Starting with jazz fusion is a good way. And with some experience you can enjoy real jazz.
