| What artists can you not get enough of? Thank you for the positivity, @tomcarr ! Just a few: Ray Charles Ludwig V Beethoven Joni Mitchell Joe Henderson Franz Schubert Herbie Hancock Elis Regina Paul Desmond Bill Evans Jeff Beck Carlo Gesualdo Miles Davis Max Roach Ric... | |
| Big Jazz Band Music with Great Sound Sounds like you prefer a more traditional big band sound (Swing). Count Basie’s band was one of the greatest; some would say the greatest. Two recordings with truly outstanding sound: -“88 Basie Street” , “Me and You”. You may also check out... | |
| George Kaye Thanks for the spell check @bdp24 😊 @unreceivedogma , as you obviously know OTL’s are great with high impedance loads. The Stax are a very difficult load. From 40-800 hz their impedance is 100+ ohms. Limited bass and volume, but if midrange is... | |

Of the artists that you mention, Miles and Coltrane were the only ones who ventured outside of what can be called “mainstream”. This would help offer suggestion... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I get it. The MJQ’s style is of a particular aesthetic. A particular sense of swing and emphasis on a compositional style evoking Baroque Classical music. For me it pushes some of the same buttons as some West Coast Jazz does, Brubeck, Mulligan... | |
| Jazz for aficionados And let’s not forget Milt’s recording’s with the Modern Jazz Quartet. Interesting mix of swinging Jazz and Baroque style canons and fugues. https://youtu.be/7qOTELKw6p0?si=echcV-cbkwvxG97- | |
