Who are the Jazz Cats on Audiogon?


Okay, let's get down to it. WHO are the audiophiles on this site who claim JAZZ as their first music? In other words, every time you consider a new piece of equipment, it's because you want to hear Miles sound a little sweeter, or Trane sound a little more authorative, or Duke more like the master composer that he truly is? How about a roll call . . .

Not so long ago and for many years, I would have signed up as one in an instant. Now, I'm not so sure.
While I consider The Allman Brothers Band to be my favorite act, jazz is my favorite genre. It was bassed on a newly found love of jazz that I completely replaced my previous home theater system with a 2 channel music based system. As I demoed and tried different pieces of equipment and cables, Miles - Kind Of Blue was my primary listening disc. And now I find great enjoyment trying different pieces of music with the new system.

My somewhat obscure jazz reccomendation : Norris Turney - Big,Sweet,and Blue; Mapleshade(excellent jazz and an excellent recording)
My humble thanks to the several people who mentioned my name in connection with this thread. Perhaps those of us who love jazz should establish a separate forum within this forum?

For those who have analog front ends in their systems, I want to mention that I am in the process of selling a significant chunk of my jazz LP's. This has become necessary because I will no longer be able to store my collection at my Dad's house (he's moving to an assisted living facility). If anyone is interested in acquiring some jazz LP's that are in excellent to mint condition, please send me a private E-mail, and I will send you the current list of available LP's. I currently have about 250 titles available, and will be adding another 100-200 titles to this list during the next week.
