Any jazzheads on Boxingscene?

[Hawkins]

Anyone a jazz fan here? Any genre, it doesn't matter. It's all jazz music.

Does A tribe called quest count ?

Tribe is cool, as is any of the jazz-rap type of stuff, I especially enjoyed Guru's work. However, I was referring to stuff like Coleman Hawkins, Donald Byrd, Mingus, Monk, Albert Ayler, Coltrane, Miles Davis, etc

Went through a Jazz phase a few years ago. Was listening to Coltrane, Monk, Mingus etc etc every day for the better part of a year.

I love Jazz. Fusion is my favorite, but I love bebop/hard bop and all that stuff too. Ornette Coleman, Sonny Rollins, Horace Silver, Sun Ra, Davis obviously, Charlie Parker are some of my favorites.

I love all of those guys. Sun Ra is absolutely amazing. Hard bop is a personal favorite as far as genres go but I legitimately dig all of it. I've recently really gotten into Eric Dolphy, Ron Carter (the work he does on his own) and Fela Kuti and his afrobeat stuff.

You got me playing through Jazz now

This particular rendition of What's New by Coltrane (ignore the video title) kinda touched me in a way. Made me want to pick up the sax myself when I first heard it.

~2:09 - ~4:07 (then goes into Moonlight in Vermont by Getz, which is also good)

Yeah man. That is a fantastic tune. You never go wrong with anything that Coltrane was involved with. I recently found his boxset, The Heavyweight Champion, at a used bookstore for $15 when it goes for $100+ online.

I've really gotten into Donald Byrd lately.

[Randall Cunning]

Yeah, mainly, Pharoah Sanders, Sun Ra, Alice Coltrane. Check this out amazing



Probably my favourite tune
