This is a tour de force of a thread. Bravo.

B-Boy Bualadh Bos (ecuador_with_a_c), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 02:01 (fourteen years ago)

yeah, agreed! it's also functioning as a poll of top miles davis and john coltrane albums, but that's cool. in between those, i'm finding a bunch of new stuff to queue up for the winter!

IT IS EXECUTION (Z S), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 02:04 (fourteen years ago)

tuomas?

Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 12:30 (fourteen years ago)

Never really gave Birth of the Cool a chance. I was put off by the title.

Just catching up to yesterday's posts, but I'm going to play my only "TOO LOW!" on Waltz for Debby/Sunday at the Village Vanguard. Seriously figured at least one of those for top 20. So maybe Everybody Digs will be the top Evans pick?

something of an astrological coup (tipsy mothra), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 13:43 (fourteen years ago)

Wtf "i ws put off by the title" its a jazz subgenre

D-40, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 13:44 (fourteen years ago)

I'll cosign sunday at the vv being too low

D-40, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 13:45 (fourteen years ago)

The complete Sunday/Debby box that came out a while back is totally essential.

It was a joke, deej.

Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 14:16 (fourteen years ago)

I'll be grazing here and there in the Spotify playlist for the next few days -- listing to Noah Howard now.

Alright, I give in - who is this John Coltrane guy who keeps popping up? Another obscure experimental funk ilx favorite?

IT IS EXECUTION (Z S), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 14:27 (fourteen years ago)

That is the 10th Coltrane album to appear in the countdown

Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 14:29 (fourteen years ago)

I'd be interested to see at the end who turns up on the most albums without having an album of their own on the list (i.e., which sidemen are most prominent).

something of an astrological coup (tipsy mothra), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 15:06 (fourteen years ago)

ron carter or maybe billy higgins

excuse me you're a helluva guy (m coleman), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 15:08 (fourteen years ago)

i never gave birth of the cool a chance either. was put off by the music. nefertiti otoh is amazing.

sonderangerbot, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 15:26 (fourteen years ago)

Birth of the Cool is straight classic except for the final track with the vocal, which sorta ruins the mood imho

satisfying punishment for that thing he said about lesbians (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 15:33 (fourteen years ago)

no Chet Baker eh :(

love that inbetween a small group and big band texture of the nonet or whatever it was on BotC

A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 15:38 (fourteen years ago)

ron carter or maybe billy higgins

yeah I would think it's gonna be either a drummer (philly joe jones? elvin?) or a bass player (def Ron)

#19th

Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 15:57 (fourteen years ago)

huh thought Crescent might be the one that superhip jazzbos might place higher than love supreme or something.
classic record, i voted for it. also voted for love supreme though.

listening to crescent for the first time right now, very nice. softer than most of the quartet stuff i've heard.

sonderangerbot, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 16:02 (fourteen years ago)

Crescent was my top Coltrane pick.

The Not Liking Radiohead Awards (Turangalila), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 16:03 (fourteen years ago)

John, that is. :)

The Not Liking Radiohead Awards (Turangalila), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 16:03 (fourteen years ago)

yeah crescent is perfect, super moody, even for coltrane. lonnie's lament is my fave i think.

tylerw, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 16:04 (fourteen years ago)

Was expecting to see Tauhid place higher than that. Some great Sonny Sharrock stuff on that one.

Geirge Hongriot (NickB), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 16:06 (fourteen years ago)

I'm learning a lot in this thread. For instance, had no idea that Clifford Jarvis worked outside of Sun Ra's groups.
