When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.

I think the problem with a lot of the fusion music is that it's extremely predictable, it's a rock rhythm and the solos all play the same stuff and they play it over and over again ...

First impressions: Ghosts is jolly good, thanks Rico!
The glitch on it can be annoying at times, though. |

Something that wasn't mentioned yet and I find interesting, Okkyung Lee-Noisy Love Songs , some label her music as jazz., more some kind of contemporary but definetly worth an audition

I know. I want to use those two months listening to the best jazz albums that were released so far, so that by the end of December I can come up with my own list. If any new outstanding albums appear from now on until the end of the year, I trust you to post them here. |

We still have two months . Jazz year wasn't bad, but nothing special as well - not one from 80s, but far from late 60s or early 70s as well First what comes to mind of this year's good releases: Edited by snobb - 01 Nov 2011 at 2:15pm |

I also need some 2011 jazz albums. All Ive heard is the new Bela Fleck & The Flecktones. I should have the new Hiromi album in the next couple of weeks, but that's it (I think).

You probably know how I feel, it's a very good year for jazz.
Right now, I got three clear favourites.

Gentlemen, I need some really good jazz for my "albums of 2011" list (soon to come in two months). Give me your top 5s of the year!

Bill Frisell & Co. play straightforward Lennon/Beatles tunes in pop-rock manner. Total disaster!

Absolutely agree about this release - I was more than skeptical when heard it was released, but after I listened to it few times I was more and more pleasantly surprised how well it works!

I've surprised myself by really liking the collaboration of Wynton Marsalis and Eric Clapton, and having got the CD I've now gone out and bought the DVD, gaining even more pleasure seeing the genuine pleasure each musician gets for the others' playing. Indeed having read the review in the London Time several weeks ago, where the critic states this 20's New Orleans jazz fused with Chicago style blues but it works and he in particular cited the rearranged 'Layla' (included in the set at the request of one of Marsalis's band) - I felt compelled to hear this. In part I feel there is an irony here, in that Marsalis is playing a form of jazz fusion - not done since his couple of contributions to the 'Fuse' albums of the early 80's. But most importantly, I've long felt Clapton's laid back music had fallen over and gone to sleep, while Marsalis's utterances about fusion have been a turn off. However, here is a synergy , and some elements of musicians from slightly different backgrounds provoking each other into some superior playing without showing off.
