Had this idea for a thread series, if it works I'll start doing more with other Jazz artists. If you had to pick three Miles Davis albums over the others, what would they be? You can include studio LPs and live albums. My choices:

That’s some #blackexcellence right there. :francis:

:damn: I found out about this genius who make jazz compositions of all kinds of Nintendo music and brehs... This shyt is FI-YA :damn::gucci::ohlawd::mjtf::ufdup::whew: He's currently composing a whole album for Sinnoh (Diamond & Pearl Pokémon games) but he touched many Nintendo classics...

Not saying there isn't good stuff out there or everything is "trash" (though I am biased to 90s hip hop & R&B since that is when I came of age). But seriously, my kids are starting to get into music and what is primarily out there is rap and pop music. Which is a variation of what was out when I...

Black People need to get back into traditional music again. I cringe when i think of all of the Charlie Parkers and Art Tatums that have slipped through the cracks in the black community because they were deprived of private music instruction. And yes i know there's still tons of black...

Anytime I see these guys featured on hip hop tracks, it's an insta-listen for me. Check out BBNG2 for their darker, heavier stuff and 1 for the jazzy hip-hop elements. :wow:

The 1998 Western Conference Semifinals was completely mind-boggling in terms of the lineups the two teams used. Spurs C: Will Perdue PF: David Robinson SF: Tim Duncan SG: Jaren Jackson PG: Avery Johnson That's for real. The Spurs started three 7-footers who could have all played center...

I'm not sure how many people here have been paying attention, but London has been producing an amazing jazz scene the last few years. There's so many artists and groups putting out material I haven't been able to check every thing out but here's a few things Kamaal Williams The Return, by...

I just wanted to take the time to appreciate one of my favorite albums of all time, Mama’s Gun. I truly believe this album is perfection from, start to finish. Erykah’s songwriting is great, and the production is very raw and organic as well with the live instrumentation throughout the album...
