What Jazz Are You Listening To Now?

I'm going to test this out here. I see quite a few members have been posting a solid bit of great Jazz listenings… So, I figured it'd be pretty cool if we could have a thread entirely dedicated to all things Jazz. And I mean anything - From the early beginnings of the late 19th century, to Bebop/Hard-Bop, to Avant-Garde, and on to the Moon.

Post whatever you want... videos, pictures, news… This is a free-range.

I've been in a Bebop/Hard-Bop dig lately, so I'll impart this cool little documentary where Bob Cranshaw talks about his time with Lee Morgan.

:cool:

Great idea for a thread, thanks Vesuvius.

What do you all understand by the term 'hard bop'? How does it differ from 'bebop'?

I pick up more variety in the later hard bop, ie use of earlier styles, plus elements like Latin, but I have to say I'm a bit vague as to the distinctions between the two.

A little jazzy guitar is needed. One of my current favorites…
