Anyone into jazz?

Please list some of your favorite musicians/songs.

I'm more interested in newer jazz but list whatever comes to mind.

Would Dave Brubeck be considered Jazz? Take Five, is my favorite of his songs. (of the one's I've heard so far, I'm sure he has many more albums than the one or two I have. )

I have other Jazz albums...but I can't remember who they are...

Greyboy All Stars has been terrific over the past couple of years. I am hoping to make it down to Jazzfest in New Orleans and catch them at Tipitinas. Have you considered going, they're going to have a ton of good new music.

I'm only into real jazz, not the crappy watered-down smooth "newer jazz." The new stuff makes me want to vomit.

My favorite artists:
John Coltrane (favorite sax player)
Miles Davis
Charlie Parker
Sonny Rollins
Clifford Brown
Thelonious Monk
Dizzy Gillespie
Bill Evans
Art Blakey
Charles Mingus


My favorite songs are (mostly combo favorites):
Mr. PC
All of you
All the things you are
Night in Tunisia
Summertime
and like a bajillion otherse

Newer stuff:

Robert Walter's Super Heavy Organ
Robert Walter's 20th Congress
Garage-A-Trois
Greyboy Allstars
Charlie Hunter
Derek Trucks first album had lots of great jazz
Mike Clark's Perscription Renewal
Drums and Tuba (borderline jazz; not traditional in the least)
Stanton Moore
Jacob Fred Jazz Orchestra
Sound Tribe Sector 9 (borderline jazz; experiemental jazz type beats and structure)
Jazz is Dead
OM Trio

I listen to a wide variety of jazz, but I'm mainly into the new movements right now like Robert Walter and Stanton Moore. You can't touch either of those guys they are so sick.

Frank Zappa
Duke Ellington
Count Baisie
