Jazz Recommendation Thread
MilesAhead:
+1 for Lee Morgan
There are many fine releases but my favorite is Live at the Lighthouse
More than any other CD I listened to of his, this has a "modern" or "experimental" feel. It's a 3 disc set. Not a dud in the pack. :)
edit: another good source are groups led by Art Blakey. Like Miles, many "side men" went from his band to become powers in their own right.
mouser:
Wow, I never expected to see such a great outpouring of suggestions -- great stuff.
I will be following up on all of the recommendations.
MilesAhead:
Another resource I should have mentioned: AllMusic
A good search engine and many entries in the discographies have audio samples.
Lutz_:
Talking about Chet Baker - this is a wonderful album - the last great concert:

Bobby Hutcherson on the vibes... bliss.
This whole album is just awesome.
