Just saw a adbook post of new releases out tomorrow at a local shop One title is Dexter Gordon GO(KG cut) and it sparked the thread idea.
seeing more folks posting on various artists/albums, so it seems right the genre has its own spot here for broad discussion.
My old man was professional drummer with a day job. I never paid much interest to his taste and I've come to regret that as I have gotten older. Shit I was named after Davis ffs.I have begun to appreciate the varied styles and aquire certain titles.
So, whatcha got and why? better versions than others etc... what/who do I/we need to be on the lookout for?
Closer to OG pressings appeal to me for a variety of reasons and am fortunate to live in a jazz fan rich area.

Yeah, jazz seems to be having a resurgence. I had roommates back in the very early 70's who were into all the usual 60's rock stuff plus being very hip to all things jazz. I didn't mind it so much when they played stuff by Mile Davis or Horace Silver or maybe even Mingus, but when it came to later Coltrane or, WORSE!, Albert Ayler or Sun Ra, I wanted to run out of the house screaming!But then one day, while floating on some nice reefer, they were playing a Sun Ra LP and suddenly, *click*, a light went on. Wow! That was good! And in no time at all, all of it sounded good. I've never looked back. My favorites today run from the far out of Sun Ra and Albert Ayler, to the inventiveness of Coltrane and Miles, to the mellowness of Getz, Bill Evans, and Guaraldi, and many more. There's so much good music out there.Now, at some point we might want to discuss the term "Jazz". In his fine book, Notes and Tones, drummer Arthur Taylor interviews several top jazz artists and asks them what they thing of the term "jazz". Surprisingly (or maybe not?) several of them disliked it, some even abhorred it. Interesting stuff!By the way, M, would love to here more about your dad's jazz adventures!

I like jazz. Newish fan after picking up a small pile cheap and also friends hooking me up. I like where it takes my mind. Gives it more room to flow, where other types of music tends to direct my mood.
I found it interesting some african american classical musicians were pushed away into 'jazz' because of their skin color. In particular one dude. Ron Carter...invented his own bass...real unique sound..worked with tons of greats...When you find a record with him on it, get it.

Like Lou, I am a more recent (last couple years) Jazz aficionado and it’s been a fun ride so far. One of the newer artists that has really impressed me is The Comet is Coming. I’ve got both albums and both EPs. The best of the lot is the album Trust in the Lifeforce of the Deep Mystery. A fun ride for sure.Also picked up a used 45rpm copy of the Tsuyoshi Yamamoto Trio album titled Misty. Phenomenal album and pressing.0

After all these years of being into jazz, I have somehow managed to miss out on Charles Lloyd (although I do have several records featuring the amazing Mr. Ron Carter!) Maybe this is a good one to start with for Lloyd?

How is the sleeve? The 75th was lame, cheap cardboard.0 -
Yes the sleeve is weak, but that's what keeps the price down. I'd bet this sounds better than the 75th, I've read that the 75th series was kind of hit or miss with their pressings. So far this Classic series is hitting it out of the park, as least sonically.mrussel1 said:

Do you ever come across an album in your collection and think, "Whoa! Forgot I had this. I can't even remember what it sounds like"? I was doing some organizing today and found this one:
:format(jpeg):mode_rgb():quality(40)/discogs-images/R-1796760-1584527986-1416.jpeg.jpg "Image: https://img.discogs.com/qu76dDb-2AHS1NUxlkWUIdgwg1c=/fit-in/300x300/filters:strip_icc():format(jpeg):mode_rgb():quality(40)/discogs-images/R-1796760-1584527986-1416.jpeg.jpg")
I thought, "Man! I can't remember this!" I gave it a spin and was totally blown away. This record is amazing! Jack DeJohnette, David Murray, Arthur Blythe and Peter Warren. Mind blowing!

Love Jack when he was with Bill Evans. I didn't know he had his own stuff.0

I think you would flip over his Special Edition, M. It really does deserve- as Michael Nastos put it in his review- "a definitive five-star rating for the lofty place it commands in the evolution of jazz toward new heights and horizons". Killer album!

When it comes to jazz, I dig all the more progressive acts that Blue Note, etc. are cashing in on lately, but, to me, nothing, and I mean goddamn nothing, beats Dixieland.It’s a trip, it’s got a funky beat, and I can bug out to it.I SAW PEARL JAM0
