Members spawnofthesith Posted June 6, 2012 Members Share Posted June 6, 2012 Its about time for one. Over the past year I've had a growing love for jazz, and these days listen to it at least as much as metal, if not more so. I am still totally a noob/novice when it comes to the genre Lately I've really been enjoying some of the bigger names more out there experimental stuff from the late 60s/70s [video=youtube;RczWDQmKQtA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RczWDQmKQtA [video=youtube;FJk69zvgBhU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJk69zvgBhU [video=youtube;VvBLg6nvKW4] [video=youtube;dOXEfQs5nIs] [video=youtube;Cqy5Dn9j6hE] And some more traditional stuff for the less adventuresome listener [video=youtube;EKvVKsJ8sk4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKvVKsJ8sk4 [video=youtube;W4WE2VbPAag]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4WE2VbPAag [video=youtube;hwmRQ0PBtXU] I know I've barely scratched the surface of the genre, but I look forward to digging into more.

Members spawnofthesith Posted June 6, 2012 Author Members Share Posted June 6, 2012 Check out Alex Skolick Trio! definitely good stuff. They sort of served as a bridge for me a couple years back, and piqued my first interest in jazz. I'm hoping to pull a Skolnick and take some jazz guitar classes at school next semester and try to get good at jazz guitar. My guitar teacher in high school was a metalhead turn jazz buff, and what jazz stuff he did teach me, I definitely love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members spawnofthesith Posted June 7, 2012 Author Members Share Posted June 7, 2012 This recording is from a live performance, during which he was so {censored}ed up that he needed people to physically hold him up while he was playing. Amazing performance for being that {censored}ed up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members chrispsullivan Posted June 7, 2012 Members Share Posted June 7, 2012 I love Jazz. I couldn't even begin to share my collection on here, it takes up nearly a third of my entire iTunes library. I will say that you should check out Ben Wendel and Kneebody if you want to hear some hip newer stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was so pissed Yeah, he was at the Monterey Jazz festival when I was living in Monterey. And I recently heard some Jon Schofield that I really liked on NPR, but forgot the name of the tune. Oh, and also, this thread has a distinct lack of Joe Pass jkinLvUrUYE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
