I can give you specifics but there is a bunch from these cats.
Jazz like this? Suggestions
I've been listening to "The Gotland Sessions" by the Magnus Ringblom Quartet for a good while now, and absolutely adore it. However, I have tried unsuccessfully to search for Jazz in a similar vein, having exhausted his catalogue on Qobuz
I'm no expert on Jazz, but enjoy the mellow, dreamy jazz served up by Magnus and co; could someone with more Jazz knowledge point me in the right direction?
I stream exclusively from Qobuz
Thanks guys 👍🙂
Hi guys, apologies for not responding sooner; been strung out with work. Thanks for all the suggestions, great response 👍 Some I'm already familiar with: Coltrane, Davies etc, some I'm definitely not familiar with. You've given me loads to pour over. I'll be adding them to my Qobuz for a good listen as soon as time permits. Other albums I love - Stanley Turrentine with the 3 Sounds "Blue Hour" and the Dexter Gordon - "Ballads" My formative years as a teenager were the 80s, and 90s as a young adult, so grew up with "alternative" music; what I also have found are some bands who use this heritage and fuse it with some Jazz sensibilities. Anyone interested, check out the band "I just Came Back from the Moon" Thanks again guys, genuinely appreciate this 👍🤩 |
Unquestionably, improvisation is the defining element of jazz. |
As @petaluman said, check out much of the ECM catalog, past and current. While most of it will be more 'progressive' than the Magnus Ringblom Quartet, it will also be somewhat introspective in tone and mood, like the Magnus Ringblom Quartet. In other words, despite a lot of the artists on the ECM label being as quiet sounding, it will still have more fire in the soling, complexity, and get a bit more ’outside’ (without being avant-garde). Here’s a short list of what this great label has to offer: Eberhard Weber - Colours of Chloe. Later That Evening, Yellow Fields Pat Metheny - Bright Size, Watercolors, As Falls Wichita, So Falls Wichita Falls Craig Taborn - Daylight Ghosts Jan Garbarek - Jan Garbarek / Bobo Stenson Quartet, Of Mist and Melting Tord Gustavsen - Extended Circle, The Well Azimuth - Depart, Ralph Towner - almost anything with Towner on it is worth checking out. As well as his own recordings, he guests on a lot of other recordings. Ketil Bjørnstad, David Darling, Terje Rypdal, Jon Christensen - The Sea, Sidsel Endresen - Exile Anat Fort - A Long Story, And If
