things that are not jazz
>guitar

>free jazz
>avant garde
feel free to add some

>>127122734
first two are believable enough but latter two are laying it on too thick

>>127122734
>fusion
Clearly you haven't listened to Casiopea
>guitar
It's an instrument, schizo
>free jazz and avant garde
Local idiot thinks jazz isn't about improvisation and experimentation

>>127123015
nta but casiopea sounds like clown music

>>127123050
I think they were being sarcastic

Some guy made a thread about Chamber Music Society the other day. Did he ever listen to it?

>>127122670 (OP)
Why is it so difficult to follow the jazz ethos in the digital age?

>>127123015
>casiopea
bait used to be believable

>>127123312
jazz just doesn't sound as good on digital recordings. Everything comes out sounding like midi.

>>127123075
I think you are new here

>>127122734
Get an original thought

I don't understand why would you bother listening to an audio book instead of listening to his music. You can just read some articles about him meanwhile.

>>127124359
I read it. Could have been a lot shorter. It chronicles pretty much every single gig he ever played. Why? Also a bit painful to read that he hasn't really made a good album since his RCA period (and I don't even like those records much). His entire 1950s output is still good enough to warrant the title colossus though.

>>127126324
Bad take ngl, actual biographies provide way more information, presented more concisely, and (sometimes) written more eloquently/stylishly than a typical interview. Biographies are well-researched, meticulously edited, less censored, etc. Although I'm biased because I just read and/or listen to a lot of books in general.
Rollins isn't your typical 50s/60s jazz artist. His biography reveals how much more extraordinary he is/was then a lot of people realize. You get his whole life's story chronologically, not just a few off-the-dome conversations from arbitrary days he happened to do an interview.

The rosicrucian bullshit became stale pretty fast.

If you don't know all of these names, you have more work to do

>>127129606
rec me some albums dawg

>>127129606
I do know all those, but apart from Mal Waldron they're all second or third-rate, far from essential. Though I do have a soft spot for that funny little virtuoso midge.

>>127129948
Miles/Mingus and co are the pinnacle of the genre but real jazz fans listen to them so much they get to samey and eventually fresh second rate stuff sounds better than familiar first rate groups.

>>127130047
I'd say there's a fairly large number of first-raters and most of them have large enough discographies to last you a life time.

>>127130070
never cared for this guy desu

>>127128367
most fusions of japanese folk and jazz aren't that jazzy desu

underrated Lee Morgan

>>127134180
He's rated perfectly fine.

finna bump

I know it's cliche, but this album is a top5 favorite albums of all time for me
it's perfect, an absolute gem in Coltrane's discography, and has opened my ears and heart to so much more in jazz
from the first time I've listened to it, a decade ago, I have gotten to know a lot more incredible music from the genre, but I always come back to it bewildered by its magnitude
do you also think it's worthy of its reputation as one of the greatest pieces of the genre, or it's overrated?

>>127138389
reputation is justified

>>127138389
One of the only omega-hyped up albums that earned its status. Neither under nor overrated, just a good ol fashioned masterpiece where every band member is on fire.

>>127138764
true
more than that, it's incredibly polished, moreso than any other Coltrane album
not a second wasted there, it feels like a full album and not just a collection of songs

Any good flow charts to into /jazz/

banjo seems like would be a great jazz instrument

Let's dispense with this idea that Oscar peterson doesn't know what he's doing. He knows exactly what he's doing.
As an aside the rare good jazz album that isn't the performer on the cover

>>127138389

my favorite album of all time

a good thing about jazz is that most of the acclaimed albums are actually good

>>127139466
Banjo is and has always been a jazz instrument.
>>127141155
I don't think the contention has ever been that he doesn't know what he's doing, it's obvious to anyone that he is very good at playing. The question has always been whether he has a soul and human emotions.

it's mind boggling how despite being instrumental jazz still manages to reek of its joyless asshole creators

i currently sopped pretending free jazz is good and now i'm much happier and smarter

>>127142605
Relatable

Latest purchase.

>>127138389
It's not broken through with me. It's an album I listen to because it's supposed to be a pinnacle of jazz, I don't understand why. I don't even like it. :0/

>>127142605
I like it, but don't pretend to understand it
it's just weird music that tickles my brain

Based.

The only japanese jazz I listen to

Anyone know of any other atmospheric or even ambient jazz that focuses on grooves? Love, Love by Julian Priester also belongs in this phylum

>>127138389
it's in my top 5 favorite coltrane albums. people on here like to act tough but if you listen to this album in the right mood and let it bring you to tears, there's very, very little out there that is as powerful. all the band members were on fire this session.

Bob Hite from Canned Heat once said Stan Kenton's band was the jazz equivalent of Grand Funk. How accurate a comparison is this

any good jazz documentaries? this one is pretty good but there doesn't seem to be any great series that covers everything

Ken Burns's Jazz sucks fucking dick so don't even mention it

>Oscar Peterson smoked cigarettes and a pipe and often tried to break the habit, but he gained weight every time he stopped. He loved to cook and remained overweight throughout his life.
He's just like me, overweight, a chronic smoker, and we've both been accused of being completely soulless.
