who's your jazz favorite

Hey, anybody into the old jazz legends like Maynard Ferguson? I'm a T-Sax player myself but you gotta love a good jazz player. I get to see him in concert in about a week. It's gonna be awsome.

Who's your jazz favorite?

Wes Montgomery, Joe Pass, and Sonny Rollins are my personal favorites at the moment. I'm also into Coltrane, Scofield, Gary Burton, Pat Metheny, etc, so... Go figure. I don't think I can pick one favorite Jazzer.

As far as more modern jazz groups, I'm into MMW (see my sig), Soulive, Addison Groove Project, The Flecktones, some of Scofield's stuff, and Charlie Hunter. In terms of all-time greats, I'm pretty stereotypical. If I had to narrow down who I like the most, I'd pick Miles Davis, Vince Gueraldi, Thelonius Monk, and Charles Mingus.
