This week's challenge for Marcello - 50 Great European Jazz Albums 1970-2005.

Still, since almost half the list is 1970's, I'd rather see a '70s list and an '80s - 00's list. I like a whole lot of 90's - 00's jazz and the handful of picks here don't cut it.

I think in general there's less of a "canon" for this period in Jazz. Maybe there's a fusion canon by now (Electric Miles, Return to Forever Weather Report some Lifetime stuff, etc.) but even that isn't overrepresented here.

I wouldn't say that at all--Segal for sure isn't. (besides, Jack Johnson is fiercer, if not as chaotic, to my ears, and that's on there.) I'd even wager if they'd done something like an attempt at a balanced list of "important" jazz albums OTC would almost certainly be on it. The criteria for this one is different from that.

I recommended this one, too, along with some other hotass titles, but the editor assigned me Love Cry Want, which honestly really made my month. But, lordy, I'd love to go 33 1/3 length on OTC.
Thanks for the kind words, Matos.
