Forgot to mention one of my favorites: I love the Hammond B3 in rock and jazz,and Funky Organ by various artists is a good recording which I plan to use to find more Hammond B3 music. Which reminds me that I hear a lot of jazz in the Doors. LA Woman is probably the best. Lee Ritenaur and Dave Grusin are older generation "pop jazz". I like very samll doses. I get bored fast.
Need some Jazz recommendations..some pop and swing
OK, not even sure how to articulate this. I love music...almost all kinds...I have some Jazz and particularly like the Oscar Peterson and Stan Getz stuff. I have the feeling there's a treasure trove of Jazz I could be enjoying....here's the problem. Most jazz I hear...I enjoy...but never much more than in a background music sort of way. I absolutely love rock/alt rock when it contains Jazz (E.g. Soul Coughing, Steely Dan...etc. .so.
I think I need some Jazz with some pop elements/hooks to it... you might even be able to say I need some beginners jazz?
(and yes, I get that jazz is generally improvisational in nature...and does not exist to repeat hooks)
Jazz snobs: please step away...to me, it's about the music and I mean no offense!
