U-Discover Mag Lists The 50 Greatest Jazz Albums


.
U-Discover magazine just issued their list of the 50 greatest jazz albums of all time. Well, everbody's got an opinion, and I don't totally agree with their list..but at least they've got a list. I checked their list and I own 15 of the albums on the list.

How many albums on the list do you own?

What albums do you feel are glaring omissions from the list?

Mitch4t, I'm quite a bit older than you and have the same problem.
I moved to the Twin Cities six months ago where there is a 24/7 Jazz station which I keep on my car radio.
I don't see how anyone could keep up with the flood of sensational young jazz players !
It is truly unreal how many great young musicians are on the jazz scene. Singers too, both young and not so young.
Breaks my heart to think Celine Dion probably sells 10K Cd's for every one Terney Sutton does.
Jazzcourier, I don't know much about Jazz but my first thought was how could you leave out Tatum and include Weather Report.
