Valkyrion
05.10.16 | jazz lovers hidin probably |
Pon
05.10.16 | "Why does jazz barely get any love here other than Gwyn's awesome lists?"
Because Liledman left the site |
wham49
05.10.16 | great selection except Herb Albert, cover is much cooler than the game show jazz he makes |
Masochist
05.10.16 | Here to shout out Monk.
'Straight, No Chaser'. |
porcupinetheater
05.10.16 | The hell is that description for 3? |
torts
05.10.16 | everyone knows that everyone who likes jazz is a hermit and never contacts other humans,,,, why u think,,, they'd be on sputnik,,, |
RadicalEd
05.10.16 | Ryo Fukui - Scenery |
TheSpirit
05.10.16 | jazz just doesn't pull the strange in like harsh noise wall and glitch pop does |
Friday13th
05.10.16 | 3 is amazing. As good as Black Saint and Ah Um just different and more classical. I love 7 and 8 too. 9 really wasn't my thing honestly but I hear why people love it. |
JigglyPDiddy
05.10.16 | "Ryo Fukui - Scenery"
probably my favorite jazz release followed by A Love Supreme. |
Zig
05.10.16 | There's little attention to jazz, as to classical.
Ahmad Jamal - At the Pershing: But Not for Me |
smaugman
05.10.16 | Yawn |
AlexKzillion
05.10.16 | I've noticed that a lot of the classics not named Kind of Blue or A Love Supreme have like less then a hundred votes, some cases even less then 50. |
JigglyPDiddy
05.10.16 | Truest of truths. |
JamieTwort
05.10.16 | Jazz is pretty well loved amongst a lot of the site's regular users. |
zakalwe
05.10.16 | I had to learn to love it.
It's still has that niche, air of superiority thing splashed all over it and it doesn't rock and I rock with the best of 'em son. |
DustyTill
05.10.16 | 10 : ikr |
Friday13th
05.10.16 | ^ using the term jazz very loosely, yeah check those. I always rec Mahavishnu Orchestra to rockers/metalheads. |
Friday13th
05.10.16 | Yeah Return to Forever is great |
Friday13th
05.10.16 | Even so man, stuff like Blackstar or Unquestionable Presence is not what most would consider fusion. I can see those getting people interested in the jazz sound though. |
Gwyn.
05.10.16 | Art Blakey's work (Moanin' and Free For All especially) are great introductory points for anyone looking to get into non-fusion jazz - very light hearted and fun and not experimental at all, plus Blakey is an amazing drummer |
Mystletainn
05.10.16 | Is there any good orchestrated jazz bands? |
L4titudes
05.10.16 | I'm just starting to get into Jazz a bit.. unfortunately I've started with nu-jazz cause I'm a disgrace |
PlatonicMushroom
05.11.16 | i dig the soft tenderly dissonant sort of jazz but the upbeat stuff with the reedy horns is the work of satan himself |
tacos n stuff
05.11.16 | not sure why jazz gets little attention on this site
from my experience, rym seems to have a circlejerk over it tho |
PlatonicMushroom
05.11.16 | i'm in need of recs myself tbh |
squaaab
05.11.16 | milford graves - babi |
CameronLaD
05.11.16 | Jazz gets ignored so everyone can dick tug about thrash.
Indigo Jam Unit - Collectivity |
DigitalSchism
05.11.16 | Volto - Incitare
Great progressive rock jazz fusion. |
Zig
05.11.16 | Seriously, Eric Dolphy's Out to Lunch! is one of the best jazz albums ever. |
CameronLaD
05.11.16 | Yeah, definitely talking about Vektor. It's pretty good, but the hype is too much for me.
The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble - From The Stairwell |
Tb1114
05.12.16 | Karma is an unbelievably underrated album. |
RadicalEd
05.12.16 | Karma is really really good. But the vocals are not for everyone I guess. |
StrangerofSorts

05.12.16 | Alfie Ryner - Brain Surgery
Great contemporary jazz record from Toulouse |
CameronLaD
05.12.16 | Mmmm, that Mulatu Astatke is awesome.
Poncho Sanchez - Papa Gato |
Snowdog808
05.12.16 | Jazz does need more love here. I feel kind of rare on here for having many jazz albums in my fives from multiple subgenres. It seems metal and punk by default have way more publicity here. |
jagride
05.14.16 | sputnik has shit taste in punk, with 3 or 4 exceptions who hardly post anymore |
zakalwe
05.14.16 | Giving that indigo jam unit record a go. It's the bollocks. |
gocsa666
05.17.16 | Jazz and Country. Both need much more love on here. |
Madbutcher3
05.20.16 | i don't really like trad jazz very much, fusion only for me :( |
Idleness
05.20.16 | Grotesque needs more love on sputnik |
Mystletainn
05.20.16 | Grotesque is better than jazz, agreed |
FadedSun
05.25.16 | What are some albums that are like that Poncho Sanchez - Papa Gato album? I listened to that this morning and dug it a lot. |
AndManyMore
05.26.16 | Hey does anyone have anything that's similar to that kind of old western bluesy jazz that's on the cowboy bebop OST? |
StarlessCore
05.26.16 | #7 is my livelihood |
parksungjoon
05.29.16 | try chet baker, grant green, herbie hancock, sonny rollins, stan getz |
Gwyn.
05.29.16 | Mahmoud Ahmed is super easy to get into if you enjoy ethnic/world stuff, he's amazing |
Muisc4Life26
05.29.16 | I definitely agree that Jazz needs more love on here. 8,1,2,15,7 and 20 are fantastic! |
Asdfp277

herbie hancock - head hunters
sonny rollins - saxophone colossus
stan getz - getz/gilberto (technically a collaboration with joao gilberto, this alb is a bossa nova classic)

charlie parker and dizzy gillespie - bird & diz |
JamieTwort
05.29.16 | Madlib - Shades of Blue

parksungjoon
05.29.16 | ye that's a great one actually |
JamieTwort
05.29.16 | Also, a similarly hip-hop related jazz record from this year that everyone's sleeping on:
Miles Davis / Robert Glasper - Everything's Beautiful |
parksungjoon
05.29.16 | woah say whaaaat

JamieTwort
05.29.16 | It's really good. |
Flugmorph
05.29.16 | i dont get that grotesque in-joke |
parksungjoon
05.29.16 | shit man thanks will def check |
parksungjoon
05.29.16 | grotesque is just the new electrocution except there's new users on the bandwagon too

JamieTwort
05.29.16 | "Mini documentary" about the Miles/Glasper project:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_NFokhjyZk |
parksungjoon
05.29.16 | yah seen it good stuff |
Asdfp277
05.29.16 | woah i didn't know robert glasper did a new album :00 !!! |
parksungjoon
05.29.16 | predictable comment |
Relinquished
05.29.16 | "grotesque is just the new electrocution except there's new users on the bandwagon too"
you've been lurking/not new huh |
parksungjoon
05.29.16 | been around a while yea |
parksungjoon

PlatonicMushroom

PlatonicMushroom

https://youtu.be/TFzhNdQU8qU?t=8m30s |
Gwyn.
05.29.16 | yo add up Mahmoud Ahmed to the list, he's super accessible and awesome |
Shiranui
05.29.16 | Was looking initially for 31 on this list. Glad it made it. You may as well add some more stuff from this guy. |
PlasticRadioBand
06.01.16 | Bump for the sake of keeping the love alive |
PlatonicMushroom
06.01.16 | Was the lpftqwe account banned for not putting the cat album on the list |
PlasticRadioBand
06.01.16 | Nah temporarily banned for a joke review for TDAG which consisted of "since this album doesn't have enough reviews" and variations thereof. Will be dropping a review for the Miles Davis/Robert Glasper album so look forward to that |
parksungjoon
06.01.16 | you had better do it justice or else |
PlasticRadioBand
06.01.16 | My joke review did not in anyway reflect the quality of my writing or effort I put into my reviews... also my approval rating would be quite higher if I decided to remove my shitty first review but I keep it for the sake of the hilarious comment section |
TVC15
06.19.16 | Updated with the inclusion of an album/band that NEEDS far more attention on here. May be my favorite modern jazz album but, obviously, I still need to venture thru this beast of a list |
TVC15
06.19.16 | Also I've been having massive writer's block on the Miles/Glasper album but I'm currently working my gears to get up a review done for Curtis Mayfield's Super Fly which has no fucking review for some reason |
DrJohn
06.19.16 | I've been spinning Sam Rivers' Contours as of late.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvBNfAnBnAo&list=PL937478B80BDA5E28 |
TVC15
06.19.16 | Added to the list Dr. John, got any more albums that need more love? |
JamieTwort
06.19.16 | I might take it upon myself to review Everything's Beautiful if you're not sure you'll be doing it any time soon. |
someguest
06.19.16 | alternate title
"Sputnik needs more AARP members" |
TVC15
06.19.16 | I'll gibe you my blessing to properly review Everything's Beautiful Jamie.
This is what I had so far in my review tho: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1c8dbVf_KRuDwy7T-AM2vPa2PGFGyDy2qPTTTujHyT1w
For me, it's just too hard and out of my comfort zone to review an album I've just became aquainted to as opposed to kne I've been familiar with for a long time |
TVC15
06.19.16 | At least now I can dedicate time to a review I'm very familiar with, Super Fly so that shouldn't be as challenging hah
Sweeeeet jazz is now showing up on my pie chart! |
