I'm a big tent jazz fan so thanks for the rec and pls feel free to post nay borderline stuff like that in here

 

I made a thread for her last album but it went mostly ignored unfortunately. But yeah it’s a great album.

Finally getting round to listening to Christian Scott aTunde Adjuah's Centennial Trilogy. Some fucking great stuff on these albums.

 

So, I always tend to focus on the drumming when I listen to jazz. I used to drum and because I was so shit, I can't fathom how people play with such complexity haha. Anyone have any recs for any drum focused jazz? Was a big fan of the Jamire Williams record a couple of years back, so anything similar to that would be good too.

 

Any good jazz/jazz-adjacent stuff released this week?

 

Ezra Collective was last week and great

 

Donno how similar it is to that but Nate Smith - Pocket Change is a great solo drum record and anything he was sideman on for Chris Potter is great

 

Alfa Mist also put out a solid new album last week.

 

Awesome, thanks for the recs folks, will def check them out.

 

Been meaning to check out Alfa Mist.

 

shoutout to jaco and jaco only

 

Not sure how I never heard this before, but it's so good:

I need to check out the rest of her music.

 

First Listen: Brad Mehldau, 'Finding Gabriel'

 

Very stoked for this

 

God damn dude

 

Looks like The Comet is Coming are playing near me in November. I never really go to jazz shows but think I might get tickets for this.

 

Damn, might have to see if they’re doing a London show too

 

Recently found out about this band:

They put out their second album this year.

 

Also, I assume it has been mentioned here, but the this years Branford Marsalis Quartet album is amazing.

 

This was a nice listen.

 

The Kendrick Scott Oracle album from a couple of months back is really great.

 

First spin with this and it's legitimately amazing. To still have that kind of fire 30 years into recording is incredible.

 

Anyone see the NYT story about the Universal vault fire? I've been sick to my stomach ever since I read it.

 

absolutely awful

 

Even if they lost JUST the Impulse or Chess masters, it would be catastrophic. To lose that entire archive is unfathomable.
