Top 10 Jazz recordings ever

I cant't believe I'm agreeing with Rok2id, that's twice this year.

I saw "Trane" live, and not only did he lose me; but he lost the rest of the musicians he was playing with.

Towards the end, Miles thought his farts sounded melodic.

Wynton Marsalis might be the worlds best trumpet player, but he's one of the worst "music makers"; only aficionados understand that contradiction.

"Wynton Marsalis might be the worlds best trumpet player, but he's one of the worst "music makers"; only aficionados understand that contradiction."

It's not a contradiction, it's just incorrect. I implied the opposite about miles. I felt his playing had a sameness to it, lacking in dynamic range to my ear. But some great stuff. I like the 'blare' every now and then from a trumpet player. Clark terry etc.... Wynton does it all. Complete master of the instrument and is currently carrying Jazz on his back. Listen to the trumpets and brass on 'a closer walk with thee' on Marsalis and Clapton play the blues. Also the solo on 'layla' wow!. The fact that you agree with me, shows there is hope for you yet.

Wynton is the master of the his instrument, but I don't like his music. Post a "youtube" of your favorite music by Wynton so that I can hear it.

Wynton's technique is OK and he is such a lousy "music maker", right.
Clark Terry is quite good.

Can't believe nobody's mentioned Bill Berry's Duke Ellington Allstars record 'For Duke.' Sonics to die for, and an incredible performance to boot. Recorded direct-to-wax.
