https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DEaDj6TXiQQ&feature=related

my first exposure to Ella Fitzgerald was her cameo in an episode of the White Shadow lol

yay IaSW! otm whoever said nothing else scratches that itch, i feel that too
also, i love jazz singers

special thanks to kerr for being a positive force even if i do sort of regret voting now that i know that i don't deserve to have an opinion, and thanks for spreading the cosmic spirit through spotify

a tip of the spiritual hat to all of you for caring enough about jazz in 2011 to argue about it on the internet
seriously

okay I'm done I promise

I'm trying to set up the hat poll but ILX doesn't like the images I'm using and I keep getting opaque error messages. Does anyone know if there are constraints like max image size or anything I might be missing?

I don't know if seandalai has a spreadsheet link for future reference so I'm posting this all here. Sorry there's no formatting so hope its legible.

Also, I never noticed before that Pharoah is wearing the same hat on Black Unity as he is wearing on Thembi.

holy shit xp

264 Charles Mingus - At Antibes 332 2 0

ooh man this this this

persian lamb hat?

http://www.russianlegacy.com/catalog/images/hats/C7431.jpg

big albums i expected to go top 100 just missed out.

Maybe if I had done a top 300 people would have been happier?

apparently they are also called ushanka

Yes, that's the one! Wonder who wore it first?

Nice results. I'm a little surprised I'm the only one to vote Black Saint #1 though. I own pretty much everything Mingus ever did mainly because I was hoping he'd matched that album. He had a lot of great albums, but nothing quite so intense. Also, the only jazz album to soundtrack my dreams.

Full list of ILM post-1945 JAZZ ALBUM RESULTS + post your ballots

Damn, the fur production for those hats sounds horribly grizzly and not really very spiritual at all.

Poll of SPIRITUAL HATS

Spotify Playlist

thanks for the poll, Armand! (I know you're former ILX poster ____ but not sure who)
this poll has given me a loooooooooong list of stuff i'm dying to hear

Yeah, lots of homework.

Any chance you could post the list of songs on the Spotify playlist (one song per album right?) for those of us (lolCanadians) who can't see it? Song by song will be a lot faster/easier than album by album.

Thanks for this.

I learned that nobody likes jazz vocalists but me :(

and you said you were a vibraphone guy too, right? have you heard http://jazzbluesclub.com/uploads/posts/thumbs/1253951116_timefortwo.jpg

Sadly missed most of the countdown, now realise what huge gaps I have in my jazz knowledge. Will be hammering spotify over the next few months.

Only one album whose placing has me shocked, '297 Keith Jarrett - The Köln Concert 253 2 0', I expected this to be a top 30 placing easily.

plenty of things I thought would place but not everything can place.

There's no way to c&p anything like that over, sorry. It's mostly the full albums on the list (except some albums dont have songs available for some reason)

The only real surprises for me were the low placings of Brown/Roach records, and Braxton's Creative Orchestra Music 1976 not placing in the top 250. It was a relatively big record when it was released (topped Down Beat's 1977 critics poll); but then, it's been out of print pretty much from the late 70s until the expensive Mosaic set came out a couple years ago.

And thanks for posting the Spotify list! Currently listening to Grant Green's take on George Russell's "Ezz-Thetic", gonna dig into Herbie soon (never heard any of his records as a leader).

but remember it's an ILM poll not a Downbeat poll. As I said on the other thread, people should have campaigned for albums.

I know, I don't think I campaigned for anything. I think a lot of it has to do with visibility, too; if a record's out of print for x number of years/decades, its hearers are necessarily going to be fewer than those of consistently-in-print records.

i campaigned for Soul Station and Cool Struttin' and posted spotify links to the albums and it seemed to work. Same with the links to 50 Trane, I had feared earlier Miles & Trane would suffer, but thankfully not!

It can work both ways tarfumes, sometimes oop albums get a mythology of their own.

True, hence the placing of Babi (among others).

yeah, i downloaded that one. A friend of mine in poland digs that lp so much.(he owns it) he used to post on here when he lived in the usa/canada but sadly is a poll hater.

This may be discussed elsewhere on the thread, but with all that Miles I'm kinda surprised by no Elevator to the Gallows.

True, hence the placing of Babi (among others).

or the trane & monk record that was only released a couple yrs ago

the trane and monk record that placed came out in 1961

N/M just saw the quartet one

just ordered that blue note book. my folks have amazon prime trial so will get it monday it says. might order a couple of cd's too as there's a few good cheap ones. Hardly bought a thing for months.

Now what to buy? Gonna order something that isnt actually in the poll but wanted to get for ages and now I am going to.
All this stuff on Spotify has made me lazy about buying, and I've decided that since 99% of my jazz collection is on CD im just going to keep buying jazz on cd instead of vinyl as it's too expensive and amazon has cd's for 4 or 5 quid.

Obv got a fair bit of these albums on CD but gonna get a few i dont have already. Bizarrely im lacking in most coltrane but id like to get the rest of the Impulse cds first, anyone know if there's a Coltrane impulse box?

if not im just gonna look out for cheap coltrane impulse cds.Dont need any miles (apart from a few box sets) as i have that giant 70cd box from a year or 2 back.

This poll got me to order Money Jungle, The Far-East Suite, a Dave Brubeck Quartet three-album set (fuck the haters, this was an awesome band with an unique sound), and The Betty Carter Album (wasn't familiar with her, but Deej's and Shakey's posts certainly got me interested) from Amazon, so it's certainly been a good way of introducing new stuff to me. Thanks Kerr & Sean!

There is a Coltrane Impulse box, his "complete" quartet recordings -- and just the quartet. So, no Africa/Brass, no Ascension, no Meditations, none of the records with his 66-67 quintet, no 1961 Vanguard (Dolphy was in that group), no Interstellar Space, and none of the previously-unreleased quartet recordings that came to light after the "complete" box was issued.

Might have a look for that if its not too expensive and if its cheaper than buying stuff together.

Better than that though is the Coltrane On Impulse sets that they've been putting out. Five albums in each volume with the superior Japanese remasters, no extras, no alternates. The first three volumes are everything released in his lifetime; volumes 4 & 5 will be out in the next couple of months and start collecting the posthumous releases. The first 3 sets are cheap - around $35 or so. 4 & 5 look to be around $60 each - I think the demand is less, and the print runs will be smaller.

a Dave Brubeck Quartet three-album set (fuck the haters, this was an awesome band with an unique sound)

imo paul desmond >>> dave brubeck, and a more defining element to the group's sound. you might want to pursue some of his stuff

I think they're actually called John Coltrane: The Impulse Albums Volume _. As much as I like some of the alternates on the special edition single sets (like The Complete Africa/Brass) I find that I greatly prefer the albums as intended when possible. I even took the time to separate the Atlantic boxsets for Coltrane, Coleman & Mingus into the intended albums when I ripped them into itunes.
