Home Jazz Alley

From Louis Armstrong to Charlie Parker to the new greats of today, this is the place for Jazz!

In looking at my own picks....

...I see great lyricism as the cardinal virtue in most of these cases. Even the ones that groove hard have soaring lines (Joshua) or a singing quality (Frelon Brun). Oh, and there's Philly Joe Jones on Ah-Leu-Cha. Damn!

The reason I include the Metronome All Stars date (Overtime is the name of the cut) is that it's strong evidence that Miles really WAS an accomplished trumpeter.
