Jazz Recommendations

A must-own CD is Chris Potter's "Follow the Red Line" ... simply substantial in every way

I agree, Chris Potter's "Follow the Red Line" is a great!

Try Jason Lindner's Big Band- "Live At The Jazz Gallery."

I just stumbled onto this wonderful thread and have been reading alongside amozon.com. Two books and I don't know how many CD's!

Thank you all.

Now, I must proceed to check out.

For what its worth, if you're into this type of music, I picked up some leads on several jazz CDs from this thread and others and three of the standouts are:
1. Oscar Peterson Trio - "We Get Requests" (Verve)
2. Charlie Haden & Kenny Barron - "Night and The City" (Verve)
3. Joe Lovano & Hank Jones - "Live at Dizzy's Club" (Blue Note)

I concur with the guys who recommended these before me. Excellent sound quality. Terrific performances. Simple clean "you are there" feeling to all of them. Very involving.

Thanks, Kana813, I'll try your suggestions.

For all of you who love saxophone ... RUN, do not walk, and pick up "In Pursuit" by Donny McCaslin ... from standard low-key jazz to Coltranesque spacial pyrotechnics ... something for everyone here ... and ALL OF IT simply great music!
