I'm trying to find some good jazz, nothing that sounds like elevator music. Any names of songs or bands I can search for?

Anything by Gershwin.

Candiria :yum:

if you like the nice lounge jazz,



check out john scolfield w/ medeski-martin-&_wood....the ablum is called " a go-go"

i also like a lot of miles davis and louis armstrong stuff.



if you like bluesey jazz, chack out elvin jones and richard davis in "heavy sounds" circa '67 that **** if PHAT...

dave brubek is great. he is mostly known for the lp "take five" where in that title track songe, they defy contemporary timing, kinda like a rotary, with an off 4 to 5 and weird count theme....but it works....



just for griins, any of you guys want to really smooth your lady over, just pop in some gypsy kings. they are truly a musical aphrodisiac......a good start is the greatest hits......



es ls mejor....



try em, youll like em....

I am a trumpet player........And my favorite is Miles Davis, Louis Armstrong, Wynton Marsalis. Or if you want the real har core latin jazz my favorite......Maynard Ferguson!! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif Can't go wrong with these guys!

how about the BUENA VISTA SOCIAL CLUB....those guys are the ****....afro-cuban jazz...



one of the more notable members, Ibrahim Ferrer has a great album out....



it is also a "moist maker" for the ladies in teh dim lights.....

Cowboy Bebop

Yeah, here's another vote for Buena Vista Social Club, most excellent album!
