Tom Harrell is interesting and way less known..or Avishai Cohen at the trumpet

Avishai Cohen s++ks.  Does not (will not) play two notes back to back in tune/key.  At  least the recordings I have.  I appreciate that style but can only take so much of it.  Like RAP.  I have recordings where he is a guest artist and when he comes in, he ruins the whole thing. 😖  My far and between 2 cents.

  • Scott Hamilton - Live at Museo Piaggio
  • Enzo Pietropaoli - Easytude
  • Alessio Menconi - Live at Peggy's Skylight

Nice idea for a Jazz thread. Excellent selections as above. I own the Keith Jarrett catalog (and it is DEEP!). Big fan of Tom Harrell as well.

 

Happy Listening!
