Yes, preferably allllll over my face. Oh yes.

Edit: sorry, wrong thread.

I'm mostly into bossa nova.

I like it ok. Listen to quite a bit these days. 60s freakout jazz like Ornette Coleman, Cecil Taylor and Albert Ayler. Cosmic stuff like Sun Ra and Alice Coltrane.

Herbie Hancock, Billy Cobham, Duke Ellington, Alice & John Coltrane, Nina Simone, Sarah Vaughan, Billie Holiday, Bob James & Oscar Peterson are my faves

I'm basically echoing other folk here but I'm big on my jazz. Right into John Coltrane, of course. He's probably my favourite Jazz musician. Aside from big John, I love Albert Ayler and Miles Davis. Absolute top 3 ever. There's so much great Jazz to listen to though, it's mindblowing.

I do like my modern free form spazzed out jazz too. I'll add some albums here some point I guess.

I really like jazz, mainly due to my dads record collection and playing the saxophone from a young age.
Really like the big band stuff like Count Basie but also stuff like Miles Davis and John Coltrane. Really like some of Miles' electric stuff.
Listened to some Keith Jarret not too long ago. The man really is a Genius.

a couple of favourites:
Anthony Braxton - In the Tradition vol. 1. Fantastic playing and arrangements... w/ echoes of the be-bop/ post- bop styles mixed with elements of 60s free jazz.

Albert Ayler - the Holy Ghost 10 cd set. You could listen to this forever and not get bored. Essential for fans of free jazz.

Baden Powell is mah main man. His shit is maad good.

Check it

I also dig Stan Getz, João Gilberto, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Vinicius de Moraes, Gilberto Gil... the big names, mostly.

Some people don't think it's jazz at ALL and purely a type of samba, other think it's highly influenced by jazz and others think it's mostly jazz (when you sum it up, it has most of the main ingredients of what people use to define jazz, including improvisation). Judge for yourself, I'd say! I absolutely love it and as a friend of mine said, it's about 60% jazz, so jazz enough (which I think is jazzier than Davis' electric works).

I got into jazz through Sun Ra, Coltrane, Ornette Coleman, Pharaoh Sanders, Sonny Sharrock... you know, the avant-gardists, but in the past few years I latched on the more accessible and light hearted sounds of bossa.

Check out The Art Ensemble of Chicago, or Soft Machine.

SUn Ra is someone I always wanted to know more a bout -
Its hard to know where to start cos his stuff can be so eclectic

Like I want it psychedelic like but coherent ish ....

Recommendations?

Atlantis would be a good starting point! Though my first taste of the Ra was Space Is The Place. His discography is vast and I had a LOAAAD of his albums on my external HD, which crashed... bah, don't know most by name, I just listened to them.

Haven't listened to him in ages, come to think of it.

jazz?
