    LOVE your channel name! This is a great list - I would maybe change a couple here or there - but for the most part - solid. I am a huge Grant Green fan and I also like a lot of Organ driven Jazz - so maybe throw in a John Patton for the Chat Baker - but I have all of these and they are great! Herbie Hancock is my favorite!

      As a rock fan, I find myself drawn first to the guitarists and Green is right there with Burrell and John McLaughlin for me.

    All top notch stuff. For me Miles is King. I use to buy a lot of jazz but slowed it down tremendously as prices keep going up. 75% of the time when I listen to jazz it’s Miles from 68-73, his electric years

      I really like Bitches Brew, but I think Jack Johnson might be my favorite from that era.

    I’ve been collecting jazz since the 1970s and have way too many records and CDs, but I really enjoyed your list! It gave me some great suggestions for a bunch of records to,pull out that I haven’t listened to in a while to play. Thanks. Keep it up.
    Also try Bill Evans Waltz for Debby or Live at the Village Vanguard. Both recorded at the same gig, unbelievable sound quality too.

      Thanks Bob! Do you have any suggestions of jazz musicians that I should listen to?

    Great list to start. Coltrane Love personally I will keep to next step IMO, Blue Train is more soft. Cheers from Florida.

      I think Coltrane is my favorite sax player. I also have A Love Supreme and Giant Steps. I also love his work with Miles first quintet.

    Solid List!! Maiden Voyage is another good album by Herbie Hancock!! Definitely a top 5 for me. Bill Evans live at Town Hall is must! Probably my favorite jazz piano based album

      Bill Evans is a glaring hole in my collection. Waltz for Debby is at the top of my wantlist.

    New subscriber! A few surprise picks but love all of them. Thank you for including "Time Out" as it is one of my favorites. I also really enjoy "Little Girl Blue" by Nina Simone, "Getz/Gilberto" by Stan Getz, "At Last" by Etta James, "A Love Supreme" by John Coltrane, and "Mingus Ah Um" by Charles Mingus

      Thanks for the sub! I have about 50 jazz records currently in my collection including all you mentioned other than Nina Simone and Etta James.
