I'm more of a Coon Bid'ness guy, but any Hemphill would have been welcome.

i like gene ammons but sadly lots of things are gonna miss out in a poll. but maybe if some more of you guys complaining voted it would be different

the jazz contingent on ilm is tiny. half of the jazz d-bags posters didn't vote/nominate so im amazed and well chuffed we got 39 voters (thanks to you all). But we got a great list of 250 awesome records and full results will be posted at the end so you can still check out some great albums that missed the top 250

i wonder what it would have taken for this to be a 'bad list'
― D-40, Friday, 2 September 2011 20:59 (twelve years ago) link
hah, no william. Do you guys want a separate post yr ballots thread? if so i'll start one when it's time
― Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Friday, 2 September 2011 20:59 (twelve years ago) link
deej do you think this is really a bad list??
no. the backpatting abt how good it was seemed a bit silly tho
― D-40, Friday, 2 September 2011 21:00 (twelve years ago) link
well it has a 250 of great albums. That people will check out if they haven't already I'd consider that good.

kind of prefer other dolphy albums to it, though. it's fab, but i reach for the five spot albums more.

Of all the places to complain about the obscurity impulses of ILX you're really going to take this thread up as your cause, deej? You're posting on a message board that was spawned from a Belle & Sebastian listserv.
― gutta gutta island (s. morris), Friday, 2 September 2011 21:07 (twelve years ago) link
I mean of all the polls ILX has done in the 8 years I've been lurking this is the first one where I was like "yeah, that's cool."
tylerw, totally. Vol I of Live at the Five Spot is :O
― The Not Liking Radiohead Awards (Turangalila), Friday, 2 September 2011 21:09 (twelve years ago) link
Love that Dolphy record so much. As much as I dig his other records, the closest thing I can think of that approaches it in terms of arrangements/compositional sensibility is Tony Williams' hella underrated Spring and Life Time.

Well, if I'd voted -- and I wouldn't have, because I don't feel qualified -- 5, 4, and 3 would all have been on my ballot. I still think "Shape of Jazz" is extraordinary. Yeah, historical significance and all, but if you just gave it to me on a cassette marked "Awesome Music" I think it would still be pretty mind-blowing.

Blue Train, Ascension, and Giant Stepsgoes to show that coltrane has a pretty deep catalog -- i didn't vote for any of these.
