Can you recommend Jazz for some one that doesn't like Jazz?
Let me explain, I have tried to like jazz for over 30 years. I rarely find something I like. To me it sounds too disjointed, like everyone is trying to out do the others and they are all playing a different song. I know there has to be some good instrumental smooth jazz artists I am missing. If you have any suggestions of whom to try let me know. Some that are on my Jazz playlist is Pat Metheny-"It's for you" Bill Frisell _"Heard it through the grapevine" Holly Cole, George Benson... for an example of things I do like.
I'd love to have a 100 song Jazz playlist. So what'ch got for me?
Thanks
@mooncrikit really good list, I've got some of those also, but I'm gonna check out the ones you listed I don't have or I'm not as familiar. The contemporary Jazz genre is something I've really enjoyed exploring into. Another one I'm sure you've heard of, Keiko Matsui, she's become one of my favorites in this genre.

I would just jump in with later John Coltrane and Pharoah Sanders playing' Live in Japan'. By the end of the record if your brain is not completely rewired, play it again. If after several days, this transformation has not happened, call your wife and tell her it is safe to return home, and just listen to something else. |
