A blowing session????

I’m a pretty big jazz fan.I truly enjoy Bop and jazz from this era. Question, and perhaps this is not truly accurate/appropriate, is ----how much of this stuff is simply a ’blowin’ session from the artists who are playing the brass instruments, particularly the sax??

IOW, if you have heard one great blowing session, maybe you have heard them all?

 

Listening to ’Trane, Miles, Parlan, Vick,et al, what are your thoughts?

3rd Note;

Art Pepper and Chet Baker. After you have had time to delve and explore my suggestions, I will propose the Avant Garde session of Players.

 

Happy Listening!

2nd Note;

More modern Jazzmen like the Marsalis family, Joshua Redman and Nicholas Payton carry the torch.

 

Happy Listening!

Bop, Hard Bop and Modal Jazz will give the listener many blowing sessions. Freddie Hubbard, Coltrane and Miles are tops in my book. Check out Clifford Brown, Dexter Gordon and Houston Person as well. These discs are going to sound very sweet with your DV-60 player.

 

Happy Listening!
