Ho sempre ascoltato con interesse e curiosità la musica #jazz ma senza mai andare troppo oltre i classici Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Bill Evans ecc., un po' per pigrizia, ma soprattutto per mancanza di riferimenti.
Vorrei approfondire tanto il jazz classico quanto il contemporaneo, però mi sento disorientato perché non so bene da dove partire. Consigli? Sono davvero aperto a tutto nei confronti di uno dei generi musicali che più mi rimettono in pace col mondo.

Der Jazz- und Filmmusiker Klaus Doldinger ist im Alter von 89 Jahren gestorben. Viele kennen seinen Namen nicht, aber die Titelmusik vom Tatort, von Das Boot, von Die Unendliche Geschichte und andere. Möge er in Frieden ruhen. Hier nun der Song Lemurias Dance mit seiner Band Passport. Bei den Studioaufnahmen war Udo Lindenberg am Schlagzeug. Hier in der Liveversion sind auch einige sehr Bekannte Musiker dabei.

Tom Skinner - Kaleidescope Visions

Skinner - quite an in-demand drummer - releases his second solo album (at least under his real name) after his time in The Smile.

It's definitely a jazz album, but (as expected with Skinner) has a lot of interesting afro-beat, hip-hop, and other styles.

Meshell Ndegeocello makes an (extended) appearance, along with Tom Herbert (bass), Kareem Dayes (cello), Chelsea Carmichael & Robert Stillman (sax), Adrian Utley (guitar)...

Jazztodon artist of the week: Jaco Pastorius!

"There are very few musicians who completely redefine their instrument. Jaco was clearly one of those musicians. Before Jaco, it was considered unusual for an electric bassist to have the intelligent melodic sensibilities of a pianist or a horn player. Since Jaco, when one hears an electric bassist with the technique and melodic intelligence of a Charlie Parker or a Miles Davis, it comes from Jaco.

My defining “Jaco moment” came listening to my dad practicing “Portrait of Tracy”. I’d never heard a bass play “false” notes (harmonics) before. When I asked my dad what he was doing, he said, “I’m trying to learn this Jaco tune.” Since then, I myself have tried to learn not only “Portrait of Tracy”, but everything else from Jaco’s debut solo recording. I proudly call myself a “Jaco clone”. No one else since him has extended the melodic language of the electric bass as a soloist or as a composer.”
-Christian McBride

Stanley Turrentine - That's Where It's At

1962 soul jazz/hard bop album from Turrentine, joined by Les McCann (piano), Herbie Lewis (bass), and Otis Finch (drums).

Turrentine blows soulfully, McCann sings his way through his solos (easily picked up by the mic), and Lewis & Finch provide great rhythm support.
