Late Night Jazz


I like to keep my late night listening sessions simple— my favorite leather chair, a small fire on a cold night, bourbon (neat), and jazz that has a beautiful simplicity. I often reach for Chet Baker: Chet (OJC-087). To me it is relaxed, intimate, uncomplicated. There just seems to be space between the notes, and they just float. I am looking for other suggestions like this. Preferably on vinyl. Thanks.

Dexter Gordon "Ballads" is up first tonight. Seems to have good synergy with Elijah Craig Small Batch.

David "Fathead" Newman
Sonny Sitt
Art Pepper
Art Farmer
1+ Ben Webster
Ronnie Earl and the Broadcasters
I’m sitting here late at night in my dark listening room and spinning Paul Motian Trio into my new BorderPatrol DAC. Just need to fix a drink and then life is good.
Surprises no one mentioned Archie Shepp : Four for Trane , sweet mellow and low.

Also Yusef Lateef : Eastern Sounds, can make jou smile.

Oscar Peterson exclusively for my friends, sublime play and recordings.

If mellow becomes melancholy: Charly Haden: The Art of Song, the magnificence of Shirley Horn gives me wet eyes.

If your soul is somewhat fatigue from all the bad news, Lars Danielsson: Libera me.
