Jazz

(1/4) > >>

La Creme:
So yeah, it kills.

I'm learning this.

Except not quite like that. Wes' interpretatoion does smash the original's skull and fuck its daughter(s) though...

*EDIT*
Also, I didn't put "Smooth Jazz" up there, because that shit is not music.

Inlander:
You lumped swing and Dixieland in together?  Come on, man!  They're completely different styles of jazz!!

Anyway, "What's your favourite style of jazz" questions lead to the worst kind of jazz snobbery (see the introduction to Gary Giddins' Visions of Jazz for an amusing take on this).  I listen to pretty much any kind of jazz.

Except fusion.  I'm not touching that shit with a barge-pole.

Kid Modernist:
Bossa Nova. I bought Joao Gilberto in Tokyo today actually.

ForteBass:
Fusion, man. Also, technically speaking Hard Bop and Fusion are modern jazz.

Tago Mago:
He probably means contemporary jazz, not modern as in post-war.

I hate to sound like a snob, but I picked free jazz. I adore Miles, Duke Ellington, Mingus, Monk, and all of them, but what I listen to the most is still Albert Ayler, Cecil Taylor, John Coltrane, or Pharoah Sanders.
