I am just starting to get into Jazz. I recently bought Thelonious Monk Quartet "Live at Monterey" and was blown away. Could you recommend other mainstream Jazz recordings that I should have in a basic collection to help me get started.
The Rudy Van Gelder remasteres series CD by Presitge is really good and is better than all other digital versions of the same recordings. Including some of the 20 bit matering
Ray, these 2 were recorded in '97 and'94, respectively,and both are Telarc Jazz Series,and are very good recording quality.I will have to give the 'Jazz Cello' a listen.
Double4w,I am a huge Ray Brown fan!He has released so many recordings!!!His ,,Some of my Best Friends are....,series are very good too! Ive been in Bradenton for 16 years now,i have a job int. in Boca Raton next week,,so i may be down there soon.I noticed in another thread that u still live in fl..Ray
if u like ray brown, highly recommended: The Ray Brown Trio: Live At the Lola w/ Gene Harris and Jeff Hamilton is incredible and a lot of fun: SACD version is better yet.
