Jazz...where the balls do I start?
I was reading iPear's "Big chill party fantastic" (approx) blog and realized I need to get into some jazz. Coming from a guy whose knowledge goes as far as Brubeck's "Take Five", help me out!

(Nothing too out there, jazz fusion might come later)

Kinda Blue by Miles Davis. Generally accepted as the primer on jazz.

Well, Stan Getz is a pretty safe bet. I don't think you can go wrong with some good tenor sax.

It's jazz, man. You don't start. You just let it flow.

There are individual cuts I'd recomment too:

Walk on the Wild Side by Jimmy Smith

Straight, No Chaser by Thelonious Monk

Le Coiffure by (forgot the artist)

Let's Get Lost by Chet Baker

Lambert, Hendricks and Ross (anything by them)

Night in Tunisia by Duke Ellington (although a version by anyone generally sounds good. Hard to fuck this one up)



Song for my Father - Horace Silver



Second the Stan Getz
