Black Sabbath and Jazz fans?

@curiousjim

Right? the tunes are catchy enough, and we are familiar with them enough to listen to the whole album, and then the sound quality is excellent enough to listen to them over again!

I continue to find great compromise options such as Alter Bridge, Gojira, Myles Kennedy, Creed, Jazzmatazz w / Guru, Khemmis, King Gizzard and others I could name.

Man, I only recognize one of those names in that list.

@mclinnguy Gojira is the metal band that just played at the Olympics opening ceremony…they are quite heavy but massively talented drummer and unique sound. King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard is Australian and are blowing up…on tour in USA soon, and in several cities they are playing with a symphony orchestra. Some of the others are pretty niche, though Myles Kennedy is a bit of a virtuoso. 
 

PS Jazz Sabbath slaps.  

Good stuff.  Never heard of them before.

The Bad Plus is another jazz trio that covers rock songs including Iron Man.  Just listened to them back to back.  Very different renditions of the same song.

I would not mix hard rock with jazz I still fully enjoy Black Sabbath and other my favourite rock bands. I am a big jazz fan as well spending considerably more time listening to jazz and classical music, but occasionally when my wife is not at home I listen to rock and I’m really charmed.

Speaking of jazz cover bands, I’ve always liked Jazz is Dead.   Grateful Dead music seems to lend itself to jazz interpretation.

And this one’s become a real favorite of mine…Big Band of Brothers, excellent big band charts and performance of Alllman Brothers favorites.
