Isn't exactly the worst idea
It took me years to properly get into any kind of jazz, no matter how much respect I'd had for it. Try getting Round About Midnight by Miles Davis - it's basically the album that sparked me off properly in that direction. It shouldn't be too hard to suss out where to go from there.
I can't be bothered to post about another album yet, so here's another track I'm digging at the moment...
Johnny Cash - Sam Hall
...as I think about which one of the American series I'm going to mull over in a post (...if any).
This little ditty - evidence that honky tonk is indeed the shizz - is from American IV: The Man Comes Around, which is probably the best-known one of the bunch, at least for its having Cash's covers of Hurt, Personal Jesus and In My Life on it.
