Thanks, the only ones that I think I really know are Thelonious Monk, Herbie Han**** if he counts, Duke Ellington, and a bit of Art Tatum's stuff. I've definitely heard of Chick Corea and Charles Mingus but never listened to them. I could be mistaken, but was Charles Mingus also very famous for playing bass? That's what I seem to associate his name with... But again, haven't listened to his music so I wouldn't know. I'll be checking these guys out!
