I can't really be categoriezed, since my favorites can run the gamut from West Coast Jazz to hard bop to fusion. But here are some of my top faves:

  • Miles Davis --- Birth Of The Cool, Kind Of Blue
  • Coltrane --- Blue Train, Giant Steps
  • Lester Young --- Prez and Teddy
  • Oscar Peterson --- Trio with Stan Getz, Very Tall (with Milt Jackson)
  • Dave Brubeck --- Take Five (still rocks me)
  • Claude Bolling --- Suite For Flute and Jazz Piano
  • John Scofield --- Hand Jive
  • Medeski, Martin and Wood --- Shackman
  • Bela Fleck --- Tales From The Acoustic Planet
  • Weather Report --- Domino Theory
God knows there are hundreds more, but these are some staples.
