Jazz in limited quantities is OK. Just try to avoid noodling. FZ.
Jazz like this? Suggestions
I've been listening to "The Gotland Sessions" by the Magnus Ringblom Quartet for a good while now, and absolutely adore it. However, I have tried unsuccessfully to search for Jazz in a similar vein, having exhausted his catalogue on Qobuz
I'm no expert on Jazz, but enjoy the mellow, dreamy jazz served up by Magnus and co; could someone with more Jazz knowledge point me in the right direction?
I stream exclusively from Qobuz
Thanks guys 👍🙂

@stuartk There is nothing wrong with improvisation per se. But necessarily if a a large percentage of performances are mainly improvisational. performers will be unable to maintain a high standard for many of them. Absent the ones that could be classed as 'poor', many will tend to be similar and continue for lengthy periods along similar lines. I think this is what FZ meant by 'noodling'. I might call it 'being on the road a while but not getting far' or, perhaps, 'taking the long way around'. Some might find too much of this tedious. As in all things, quality is what counts. |
