you know i misleadingly tossed off the term "modal" without even thinking about it. it's mid-60s bop but it's rooted in blues, with the odd latin or eastern touch here and there. a bit like roland kirk or yusef lateef at their most traditional.

Picked up Big Band Bags tonight, which is quite good.

most of the jazz i listen to is post 65, usually 69-75. i really dislike bop. i like post-coltrane spiritual shit, free stuff, funky stuff, fusion, etc. most of the music in any genre i listen to is from the 70s

i love the early modal (kind of blue, etc) miles stuff. actually that's the first jazz album i ever heard and it still really speaks to me.
it's been a really long time since i've listened to monk, but i remember really liking him. the thing that really got me was that he sounds like he doesn't know what he fuck he's playing, but you can hear him singing along to the "wrong" notes. i LOVE when dudes sing their solos!!
but bop bores the hell out of me.

Diggin' and diggin' and diggin' (and then some) this Sunflower rekkid right now! (The Hubbard-written title piece is the biggest fave so far) It has, amid other stuff, a 8:28 reworking of Bell/Creed's "People Make the World Go Round" - just a coupla days ago I listened to young Michael Jackson's version of that song. Yum, gonna spin them back to back now.

O-oh, didn't remember having posted on this one!...
Well, this time I came upon this thread having searched, in vain, for a Modern Jazz Quartet thread (just got this MJQ's 4LPs-on-2CD thingy the other day). - So, there is no Modern Jazz Quartet thred on ILM? Is there??

"totally underrated: MEMORIES OF THELONIOUS SPHERE MONK, a live disc from the early 70s. The sound is pristine, and the band is MJ, Monty Alexander, Ray Brown, and Mickey Roker"
totally agree with poster from 12 years ago, and Bags and Trane album is ace as well.

I was reminded of this record recently (not streaming but on youtube) and it's even better than I remember:

Also sounds incredible for a 1982 live recording (discogs says it was recorded in '82, anyways).
