Jazz Mount Rushmore

I'm a sucker for Coltrane's "Ballads." That's a large club of listeners.

Still stuck on Larry Coryell's "Barefoot Boy," but that is because there are many life associations and memories agglomerated around it, and it was a breakthrough of sorts when it first came out. And look who was playing with him and who produced it and recorded it.

so many, but the OP started with specific lps, so in that spirit, not already mentioned:

Grant Green, Idle Moments

Miles Davis, Round About Midnight

Jim Hall, Concierto

Ben Webster, Meets Oscar Peterson, or, Soulville

Gerry Mulligan Meets Ben Webster

Bill Evans, Waltz for Debbie, Live at VV

Johnny Hartman/Coltrane

….and so many others, so i’m a himalayas guy obviously.

Hank Mobley, Soul Station

Getz/Gilberto

Wynton Kelly Trio/Wes Montgomery, Smokin’ at the Halfnote

Coltrane: "A Love Supreme" 

Davis: "In A Silent Way" 

Monk: "Big Band And Quartet In Concert."

Rollins: "Way Out West"

I currently house five Ellington titles. I'll share them for what it's worth:

1) Vol 1 Studio Sessions Chicago 1956

2) Duke Meets Coleman Hawkins

3) Duke Meets John Coltrane

4) Live At Newport

5) Blues In Orbit
