Jazz
Ill be honest here for a sec. I am becoming increasingly less interested in metal. Except for Black metal. the rest= meh.
that said, I am unbelievably in love with jazz. so here is the jazz thread. Recs, what your liking right now, etc etc.
I love the brecker brothers.^^^
also I am going to see Return to Forever in july ( chick corea, Al Di Meola, Stanley clark) which I cant wait for

Some v-something g-something guy on this forum recommended Steely Dan, and I have to say, they kick ass. It's a jazzy rock band, and one of the best rock bands I have ever heard. Other than that, I don't know a lot of jazz. Soft Machine is quite great, and Miles Davis.

Steely Dan is more jazzy rock type stuff. If you want jazz, get the following:
Weather Report
Jaco Pastorius
John Coltrane
Diana Krall

Most people don't bother to check out Brand X, though. Percy Jones is up there at the top when it comes to bassists. I think when I mention Phil, they're jumping to conclusions, that it's probably a drumming style like his 80s-90s crap. Not even close...

I heard they were going on tour. I'm definitely going to have to try and make one of those dates. I just got into Chick Corea and Return to Forever a couple months ago after reading an article about the tour.
Anyways, some of my favs:
Miles Davis- Birth of the Cool, Bitches Brew, In A Silent Way
John Coltrane - Giant Steps, A Love Supreme, Live at Birdland
Bennie Maupin Ensemble - Penumbra
Ornette Coleman - The Shape of Jazz to Come (I need to check out more of this guys work. Any recommendations?)
Thelonius Monk - Blue Monk, Live at Carnegie Hall with John Coltrane |

Loving these two nowadays...I really like Allan Holdsworth too, only after listening to Metal Fatigue did I realize how many metal musicians this guy has influenced.

I have a few Holdsworth albums...I even have the Gong album Gazuese that he's on. And the first UK album. Thanks for mentioning him! I haven't listened to him for about a year now!
