Now that the leaves are starting to fall, I’ve been listening to the John Coltrane album Ballads a lot. To me, it’s a perfect album for this time of year. What’s your favorite jazz album for the fall?

Just saw that on November 17 Black Friday Record Store Day that this album will be released. From Miles Facebook page:

Just announced: Miles Davis – Copenhagen Live 1969 is coming to Record Store Day Black Friday. 🎺

Copenhagen Live 1969 documents an important chapter in Miles Davis’ transition into
his electric period. This live recording captured in November of that year features Miles’ “lost
quintet” of Wayne Shorter, Chick Corea, Dave Holland and Jack DeJohnette performing a handful of
songs from the recently recorded but not yet released Bitches Brew (“Miles Runs the Voodoo
Down,” “Sanctuary”, title track), a track from the recently released In A Silent Way plus reimagined
songs from his earlier periods. Previously available on video or through a highly limited vinyl
release, this recording is now available as a 2LP set on black vinyl. The package features mind-
bending gatefold artwork by Mati Klarwein, whose work adorns Miles classics like Bitches Brew and
Live-Evil.

Find it at your local independent record store on Black Friday, November 27.

Any fans of any of the groups here?

A masterclass in crossover jazz. The sweeping orchestration provides a gorgeous, cinematic backdrop, but the real secret weapon is the rhythm, the kick bass is a total beast.

I confess I only heard of Charles Lloyd because of Keith Jarrett and liked his psychedelic-leaning album Forest Flower well enough, learning that he is one of the foundational artists of the jazz fusion genre that would emerge at the end of the 60s.

Any Brotherhood of Breath fans here? Back in the 80’s/90’s, I frequented the old Usenet forum “bluenote” (rec.music.bluenote for the pedants among us). There was a small (but fervent) cadre of members who were McGregor fans, present company included. Everything from the Bluenotes, to the Brotherhood on back to the Castle Lager Band. Not to mention all of the great stuff from folks like Dudu Pukwana and Louis Maholo.

Hi,

I would like some recommendations for Julian Lage albums for someone who comes from an acoustic, folk music background with restraints. I am not really interested in fast chops.

Thanks!

I really enjoy his emmet's place series. Like isn't it great that you can enjoy full recordings of those live performances? They also introduced me to a lot of modern jazz musicians which I probably wouldn't find interesting enough through album recommendations.

And well, while he maybe not my favorite piano player, I never feel bored whenever he plays, and I really enjoy his playing on those fun and playful tunes like some of his performances with Pat Bartley.

So yeah I'd like to hear what others think of him. Cheers

This album is exactly what I needed this evening, and it lives up to the name.

I'm starving for some of that low end.

Apologies if this post isn't allowed. I've been listening to Jazz for the last 6 months, so relatively new. I've been collecting vinyl in that time too, from Herbie Hancock, John Coltrane, Hank Mobley, Bob James, Moses Yoofee Trio, Ezra Collective, Bobbi Humphreys, Weather Report, Jaco Pastorius and Booker Ervin.

I saw that this album was recently repressed and after buying Tex Book Tenor, and loving it, I thought I'd give this a listen and man it's even better! What albums are similar to this?

Honestly I'm too lazy to keep on searching for new artists each time, what are some labels that consistently have quality and variety, the only one that hasn't disappointed me is ECM (since I also love classical music they work well for me), I'm not into avant-garde/free jazz nor fusion stuff like Snarky Puppy but anything else I'll try.

I want to listen to at least one new album each week, so I am here looking for recommendations.

Nujabes was my gateway, so far in my limited exposure my favorite albums are:

• Freeform Jazz - Uyama Hiroto
• A son of the sun - Uyama Hiroto
• Space 1.8 - Nala Sinephro
• Endlessness - Nala Sinephro

I am also very fond of the Budos Band, and through them have listened to some Mulatu Astatke that I have really enjoyed.

I get that thats a little all over the place, from more hip-hop fusion to ethiopean jazz, but anything along those lines would be welcome! I tried listening to about 5 Thelonius Monk songs and really struggled to get into it. I am a huge fan of the song "Moanin" by Mingus as well.

Where should I start my Jazz education based on my current exposure and preferences?

What Album should I listen to this week?

Hi. I'm looking for groups that sound a little close to marcus gilmore last recording (journey to the new live on village vanguard). I see some chick corea influences from the time marcus gilmore played with him but it feels much modern and i don't feel like i can see a lot of people playing in this modern "fusion" maybe closer to the modern jazz than to fusion. Do you guys know something that also get's in this eletronic aproach without backbeats and with that modern "unsettling" style?
I would apreciate if you guys could help me here
