I am just starting to get into Jazz. I recently bought Thelonious Monk Quartet "Live at Monterey" and was blown away. Could you recommend other mainstream Jazz recordings that I should have in a basic collection to help me get started.
Never seen this mentioned. Toshiko Akiyoshi Big Band is very good. Good straight ahead jazz mixed with Japanese influences. "Long Yellow Road" is an excellent album.
Thanks for the recommendation. I understand that Wilen made another record with Miles in 1957 called "Miles in Amsterdam." I was going to look around for that too.
