The Blues/Jazz

[kenshinbebop]

Anyone else a fan of blues or jazz music?

BB King, Les Paul, John Lee Hooker, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Eric Clapton, Muddy Waters, Charlie Christian, Louis Armstrong, John Coltrane, Miles Davis...

Such great genres, they're what I like to listen to when I'm relaxing or rading or something.

What about anyone else...any blues or jazz buffs out there?

I am heavily into Blues and Jazz! Love all the great ones you mention kenshin.

I recently discovered Suga Shikao (Japanese R&B singer) and he is just awesome! If you ever get a chance to listen to his music, do so.

I also like Harry Connick Jr. The Cowboy Bebop ST is a joy to listen to as well.

Awesome will do. :D

The Cowboy Bebop OSTs are so awesome. Forgot all about it!

I'm a big fan of Jazz. My favorite Jazz artists are Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Charles Mingus, Ornette Coleman, and Albert Ayler.

I love blues and jazz. Hell, one of the courses I'm taking my first semester of college this year is exclusively about Robert Johnson.

I really enjoy jazz especially. in fact, i had been looking for a vinyl copy Kind of Blue, Miles Davis' magnum opus for three years and never found a single copy. I stumbled into a record shop in Edinburgh, Scotland (a long ways away from home) and it was sitting at the front of the jazz rack, i immediately bought it and found a way to get it home safely, and it sounds perfect.

Heh, heh nothing like a jazz or blues vinyl. Kick back, relax, and let the needle roll.

Aside from some of the one's already listed, Grover Washington, Jr. , Bill Withers or Terry Kath.


Honestly haven't listened to very much though since I moved away from the New Orlean's metropolitan area some time back after that pesky storm went through. That entire region, not just the French Quarter is a Jazz/Blues/Zydeco fan's wet dream. :P

It was alway's nice to just walk around downtown and listen to all the music coming from the bar's and club's or watching the local talent start playing right in the middle of the side street's.

I've been really into John Lee Hooker lately, mostly cause I watched Blues Brothers again for the 40th time, I like blues an jazz, but I'm not to into it. I like BB King, John Coltrane, an Miles Davis though. Anyone into Big Band an Swing?

[kiyomi]

My second fave kind of music is Big Band and Swing, I grew up listening to artists such as Glenn Miller, Duke Ellington, Jimmy Dorsey, Benny Goodman Orchestra..just to name a few.

[kenshinbebop]

Duke Ellington and Benny Goodman O. are amazing.

John Lee Hooker as well. I was actually just listening to Boom, Boom.

[JoeStrummer]

I like swing, no idea where to start though, closest thing I listen to would be the Cherry Poppin' Daddies

i find too many excuses to do something like that, stressed, mellow, friday, 10 PM...
