Anyone have some free jazz clarinetists?

Thanks, SATCHMO - for the Acid Jazz and Jazz fusion definitions and the clap. And yes, I failed to mention Kinda Blue, but that's a given in the jazz world, no? The 50th Anniversary Edition was recently released and it makes me feel ****ty to see so many people take advantage of this to make a few more bucks, but hey, maybe this will reach out to some new listeners. I've not listen to much MMW, but will take the suggestion. Also, have you heard of Tin Hat Trio?

Very nice recommendations

Can someone recommend me an artist or album that's similar to Acoustic Ladyland? I already know Fire! Orchestra is somewhat similar in case someone wanted to rec them.

That's a great album (and slightly less great film). I'm a huge Zappa head (named my dog after him) already, so does anything else come to mind?

Panzerballet
Mirthkon
Contemporary Noise Quintet
Sing Penelope Sing
Too Many Zooz
Moon Hooch
Get The Blessing

Damn. Knowing everything sucks sometimes.

You knew all of those?

Yes and they're all great. miRthkon's my favourite of the bunch probably, with Too Many Zooz taking second.

F*ck. Well, take a hike then with your knowledge and sh*t.

I won't pretend to know much about Jazz but this album sounds amazing to me. Best new jazz album I have heard in a long time.

Kamasi Washington - The Epic

Mavis Staples - Down In Mississippi



Good track from an even better album:

Koko Taylor -I Got What It Takes

Newly discovered CW Stoneking. Boy am I happy!

Anyone else a fan?

This is my favorite he has done (an old Hank Williams cover), but his original work is amazing too. If you like his sound, you would probably enjoy most of his music.

Also, I was surprised to see what he looked like after I listened to him.

Hozier - To Be Alone

I've recently found myself listening to John Coltrane's A Love Supreme, and Miles Davis' Live-Evil over and over. For someone who is completely new the the genre, where should I go from here as far as listening to "the essential Jazz albums" or whatever.

Here are 5 picks off the top of my head you might like...

Art Ensemble of Chicago - Les Stances a Sophie
Sun Ra - The Futuristic Sounds of Sun Ra
Eric Dolphy - Out to Lunch!
Miles Davis - Bitches Brew, Kind of Blue, and Sketches of Spain
John Coltrane - all of it
Joe Pass - Virtuoso
Albert Ayler - Spiritual Unity

Thank you!

Also,
Hank Mobley - Soul station
Grant Green - Idle moments
Art Blakey - Moanin

I am looking for jazz in this style https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scZxGiy_t_k
In general, groovy style with instense drumming and not fast or complex saxophone parts..
Any suggestions??

A Zen master coulda written this:

Nina Simone - Feeling Good

Where ya gonna run to, huh?

Nina Simone - Sinnerman



:tramp:

Easy - D'ya Dig'

Aziza Mustafa Zadeh
 

Great jazz with strong classical (and possibly folk?) influences.
Very melodic and accessible, but still complex.

Muddy Waters - Rollin' Stone

Yeah, I like Nina Simone too, though I would've posted Strange Fruit as my fave.

My rec today is the opposite of Muddy Water's rough blues singing - it really follows on more from grindy's post of Aziza M.Z., which is really beautiful. Regina Carter has made some mainstream and collaborative jazz albums, but much more interesting imo are two more recent albums; the charming Reverse Thread (2010) in which she explores her African heritage in twelve faultless tracks, of which this is an example:



Her next album, Southern Comfort came out in 2014, and she'll tell you about it herself if you listen to the two tracks here. Unfortunately, I can't find much of this album on the internet, so any help would be appreciated. ;)

Never heard of Regina Carter. That's some great musicianship. Will have to check out those albums.
If you can't find music on the internet, use soulseek. It's the program for downloading unfindable stuff.

Glad you dug Aziza. She's not only an amazing pianist, but also a very accomplished singer.
Here she is doing an azerbaijani, operatic twist on scat singing.

^ wow, I didn't expect her to have such a powerful voice ! I was also surprised to see the list of famous musicians lending a hand on her Dance of Fire album.
And here's a track that caught my eye on YouTube; what an exquisite tone to her piano playing:-



^ Well, with a violin, an accordion and a kora in the line up, she's off to a good start, right?
Likewise, Aziza Mustafa is new to me.Thanks for the tip; I'll see if soulseek works for me too.

Thank you for posting this.

^ You're very welcome, ChelseaDagger. Do you have any recommendations of your own for us?

Love those Regina Carter tracks. Great vibe. :love:

Since Rusconi just now released a new live album with Fred Frith, I remembered this older song.
I don't think they are particularly jazzy, but they are usually described as a jazz trio, so I'm posting this here.
Seems more like some kind of post-rock with Frith's usual beautiful guitar styling added.
As a bonus the clip is fun, well done and features cute animals.
What more can you ask for?

Thanks for the invite, man, but I'm still in the wee purist stages of jazz ;) I mainly come here to leech off you conneissuers, muahahaha.

Seriously though, I had no clue that bluegrass was considered jazz. This should keep me busy for the next couple weeks :tramp:

It isn't.:confused:
There are a few jazzy elements, but it's not particularly noticeable.

I'm still talking about Regina Carter. Some serious bluegrass influence, at the very least. Not all bluegrass is purist, either, after all ;)

Oh, okay.
I thought you meant that bluegrass is a sub-genre of jazz or something like that. It really isn't.

You will never hear me claim to know anything about genre classification. I'll leave that to all you whippersnappers.
