Flies under the radar, but try I Have A Room Above Her by Paul Motian with Bill Frisel and Joe Lovano. This group played together in the '80s and did this album in 2005. They are all famous in the own right. Motian was the long time drummer for Bill Evans in the 60s.
Well-produced recent jazz cd's - recommendations?
Hey all,
Apologies if this is a redundant question/thread; lemme know if it is. Anyhow, My system consists of Reference 3a de Capo i's powered by a YBA 201 integrated, fed by a Rotel 1072 cd player all connected by Clear Day cables and IC's. I use it for mostly well-produced modern folk and jazz - think Iron and Wine, the Bad Plus, Hank Dogs, Greg Brown, Jim Hall, Diana Krall, Innocence Mission, Marc Johnson/Eliane Elias, etc.
I'm looking for recommendations for similar, well-produced artists and cd's. No smooth jazz (though the Yellowjackets are wonderful!); group vocal, or cheese; but just good, musically -layered instrumental jazz made in the last 20 years.
Any ideas? And thank you.
