Re: Who Is really good to listen to?

I agree with all mentioned, but lets not leave out Sean Jones. His album "Kaleidescope" is awesome! Adam Rapa is quite the player, too. For smoother, more hybrid jazz/legit/pop whatever, Chris Botti has got some chops!
Have fun listening!!

Re: Who Is really good to listen to?

Check out Blues and the Abstract Truth by Oliver Nelson. Freddie plays his @ss off on that album, but sometimes people forget because he was "just a sideman."

Not knowing what your bag is... I would recommend that you:

Wiki the Great American Songbook (GAS). Pick up some CD's, purchase a fake book (real book). Play lyrical.

Ella did a lot of these songs
Sinatra did too.
Sarah Vaughn did a few
Natalie Cole,
Linda Ronstadt (her Nelson Riddle releases).

The wiki article lays it all out.

As far as trumpeters go, a logical starting point would probably be.

Gillespie said of Armstrong: "No him, no me."

Armstrong was a GROUNDBREAKER in jazz.

Basic to innovative: Armstrong... go retrospective on this... compilations.

Hello Dolly... Great 32 bar lead from a mature player. Nothing wasted. Speaks volumns in the trad vein.


There's hundreds and a few respondents have pretty much covered the spectrum.


I like many, but own few cds. I listen to melody.

Here's a few I have been listening to lately.

Harrell
Vu (with Metheny)
Dave Douglas (with Bill Frissel)
Marsalis
Miles Davis
Botti (why not)
Chet Baker
Harry James

I tend to go more for the 50's and 60's styles, quartets or other small settings. I used to have this album which consisted of Drums, Trumpet, and bass. It was called Red, Hot, and Blue. I can't remember the band but I think it was one of those small New Orleans bars which also sold records of whom ever was jamming on a particular night. That LP was really, really good.

Anyway. I would keep it simple. NPR plays a lot of good stuff at night and on weekends. Tune in. I would stay clear of formatted FM or smooth jazz... it all sounds very similar to me.

Check out: The Real Group, Manhattan Transfer, Ella Fitzgerald, the Basie Big Band, Stan Kenton, Buddy Rich, Rob McConnell And The Boss Brass.

I really dig ensemble work.
