[Jazz] Post your Jazz Playlists in here.

Hey guys,

 

In this thread i wanted to share my jazz playlists with you.

 

The first time i heard about jazz was in an interview with Radiohead. They mentioned Bitches Brew by Miles Davis as one of their inspirations. I bought the cd in 1997 but was shocked with the music. Its weird rhythms, harmonies (or lack of) and no song structure. I was used listening to alternative rock like Radiohead and Dinosaur Jr.

 

In 1998 i was going to concerts alot and my curiosity led me to a jam session in a jazz club. There were four people playing, drums, bass, piano and saxophone. It was then i heard and saw the magic of jazz. They were improvising arround a standard theme and they were really enjoying the jam. Creating 'new' music as they were playing. Since that day i understood what jazz was, but it still took me some more years to finally appreciate Bitches Brew by Miles Davis.

Great! I will I have a modern jazz piano trio playlist myself 😉 👍👍.

Thanks a lot,

I don't really listen to Jazz, not that I dislike it (at least for most of it), but I have a little Jazz playlist that y'all might like for the coming months. I did listen to bits of songs on the first playlist. They were pretty good. I hope that I will check more into the genre, especially the particular Jazz that in the playlist. This may not be what y'all consider real Jazz, but see if you like it, and read the description.

Hey @MadmanOnWheels thanks for sharing. Indeed not a typical jazz playlist! Really smooth, sweet and silky. I liked the paul hardcastle track. I'm mostly listening to obscure jazz from mongolia, so a popular classic once in a while can't hurt.

 

This would be a good fit, or is it too jazzy? 🙂

@ dedelandia : thanks for sharing. I hate to say it, but the playlist is a copy of another (Playlist Factory) and you mixed it with your own songs Daniel Diaz. I see you are a longtime musician and i know it's hard to make money these days for musicians. But i hope you will be a bit more original in making your playlists. Happy playlisting!

Hey, Jazzwhatever

 

It's a quit different kind of jazz than the kind that's on my playlist. Also, part of my method of making playlists (at least for the most part) is picking songs by names that have the right sound (and lyrics, if applicable). That title doesn't fit, since it's got the opposite season in it. Thanks for the suggestion, though. I'm glad that you found something that you like, on my playlist.

I never knew that people in Mongolia would even listen to Jazz. What does their jazz sound like?

Alright, then i didnt get the idea of your playlist. 🙂 i think i meant a different song, roy ayers, my life in the sunshine. And the comment about mongolia was a joke.

What i meant was, i mostly only listen to obscure bands from the 60s and 70s. And sometimes i forget to listen to the classics!
