For the record, we're playing Birdland in Jazzband up here. Totally awesome tune to play... Even if we're doing it as a shuffle.

Hmm. . . Favorites?

Kurt Elling. You don't get much better than this guy.
Weather Report. Mmmm. . . bass solo's. Gotta love Teen Town.
The New York Voices. 4 people, two beautifully ugly chords to start Round Midnight.
Pat Methany. He was good at guitar, to say the very least.
Coleman Drake. Alright, so he's local. He's a very, very good saxophonist.
The Swingle Singer. Fool On The Hill. Nuff said.

You gotta love those people if you love all forms of jazz.

Or something like that.

Dizzie Gillespie. Night in Tunisia was, is, and will continue to be wonderful.

Saw Maynard live in Seattle. Incredible.

I got to say that album was awsome. I love coltrane and McCoy tiner to (though i havent heard any of his post coltrane stuff)

I like miles. His stuff w that composer dude is pretty neat(cant remember his name at the moment but he worked w miles on Skeches of Spain)

Louis Armstrong just for his voice and tone(i really think its the tone that can make or break the man. Thats why i hate kenny G but thats another story)

T monk was cool but i havent listend to a whole lot of him.

Stan getz too. His tone really made him to

Dizzy is cool but once again i havent listened to him alot

Charles Mingus was a great in "mingus at antibes" w/ eric dolfy(thought dolfy in general is a little crazy for me)

There are more reasons than that to hate Kenny G.

It's more accurate to say that Joe Zawinul wrote Birdland, then founded Weather Report, then recorded Birdland with Weather Report.

We played Birdland in the school pep band last year. I played the synth part. It was freaking sweet.

Ehh, my highschool jazz band sucked. I was in it, and I hated it. Now college pep-band, that was fun.
