[@bluexborn]

wayne krantz and Abercrombie...out! sorry dude

[@eriklewis7367]

solid list bro especially the cannonball adderley album

[@COLLYD420]

Where is ur pharaoh in this list!

[@aussie_philosopher8079]

Man jazz is just such a beautiful world of music. There's still so much to discover as well.

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

That's definitely true, so much music to explore 🎶

[@greyhoundude6112]

Bill Evans - Portrait In Jazz. Those early Bill Evans Trio recordings are outstanding.

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

Bill Evans - Portrait in Jazz 👏 👍

[@merleinaustin]

Kind of Blue absolutely saved my life. Got me through some dark times. Solitude isn't something to be feared; this music reminds you of that.

[@herodadam]

Good stuff. Somethin' Else by Cannonball is one my all-time favorites.

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

That's a great album 👌 👏

[@MrJazzohjazz]

A wonderful list Some of my favorites (began listening 1948). Ahmad Jamal At the Pershing. Relaxing with .Miles .... Chet Baker in Japan ..... Getz in Stockholm .... Jazz Impressions of USA by Dave Brubeck ..... Chico Hamilton Modern Jazz (with Cello ) ..... Charlie Parker - Dial Recordings .... Bill Evans / Cannonball recording ... Gerry Mulligan Paris Concert and June Christy Something Cool.

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

Im blessed to have some of those selections in my collection...I like that you mentioned June Christy, great singerv😊..thank you very much for watching my video 😊

[@JoeL-zb1yd]

Yes! Ahmad Jamal at the Pershing!

[@TheCrusaderRabbits]

No Charlie Parker? I love the Black Saint and Sinner Lady. I would marry that album if I could. Cool list. I will check out a few of these.

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

Thank you very much for watching my video ✌️

[@jerrygoldfarb7739]

Was lucky enough to see Coltrane, Mingus, Getz, McCoy, Don Cherry (with Old and New Dreams) and Sanders, once with Leon Thomas at the Village Vanguard and with Coltrane in 1966 in Madison, Wisconsin. Pretty impressive vinyl collection.

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

Those are some prime time jazz legends that you were able to see...impressive 👍 👏

[@williamcampbell3868]

I was only six when you saw Coltrane live. How fortunate you were big Bro'! I got heavy into jazz in the early 80's. I'm a big fan of Coltrane too as well as the classic jazz artists, labels, engineers, producers and liner note writers and anybody who just digs jazz! Back in the early 2000's I was fortunate enough to see Dave Brubek at the art festival in Baltimore a few years before he passed on. Dave put on a great performance and he was a awesome human being! Until we see him and other greats who have left us, may The Lord keep him!

[@jerrygoldfarb7739]

Helps to be an old MF. A few others I omitted are Dizzy (1st jazz musician ever saw at age 14 or so), Dexter Gordon, Mingus, Lee Morgan (at Slug's where eventually was shot and killed), Jackie McLean, Miles (who played with his back to the audience 75-80% of the time) , the original Weather Report lineup in 1971, and Rahsaan Roland Kirk-also recommend documentary about founders of Blue Note, Alfred Lion and Francis Woolf, "It Must Schwing"-, one of 2 documentaries about Blue Note released in 2018 (the other being Beyond the Notes which I have not seen)

[@wfberan]

One of the good things about being an old dude is you can look back at the greats you had a chance to see. When I discovered jazz at the age of 16 Coltrane had just died so I never had a chance to see him and that's one of my regrets. Still have an indelible memory of Monk at the Vanguard in 1970, not long before he stopped performing.

[@jaroddavid5933]

My Top 10 Classic Jazz Records 1) Dexter Gordon - One Flight Up 2) Charles Mingus - BS&SL 3) Miles Davis - KOB 4) Getz / Gilberto - S/T 5) Ahmad Jamal Trio - The Awakening 6) Clifford Jordan Quartet - Glass Bead Games 7) Gato Barbieri - Fenix 8) Lee Morgan - The Gigolo 9) Herbie Hancock - Takin’ Off 10. John Coltrane - Crescent

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

👏 👍 🎶....magnificent top 10...its cool that you made room for Gato Barbieri on your list.

[@wfberan]

Thanks for the shout-out for Glass Bead Games. Clifford's masterpiece. Beautiful playing.

[@AndyBHome]

Seeing these videos is such a great way to find out about music, and not just decent music, but some of the best music of all time. Thanks!

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

Thank you very much for your great comments 😊✌️

[@paaao]

Discovering Mingus was huge for me. Ah hum is truly amazing. Many of the tracks still to this day are incredibly challenging to play for top notch musicians, and that refers to playing every instrument, in the original time signature, together. Another album rarely mentioned that I found is money jungle. Mingus playing with Duke Ellington and Max Roach. Something about that record gives me the chills everytime it's been a bit since putting it on.

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

Mingus was amazing 👏 💯

[@321myself]

Thanks for putting me onto Fly With The Wind, man! Genuinely some of the nicest music I've heard!

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

Thank you 😊, I'm glad that you are enjoying the music 🎶

[@billyohanluain6600]

Great to see choices here that are not just the obvious classics or records that are being pushed by reissue labels, your love of the music comes across loud and clear! Sending you all the best from Dublin Ireland!

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

It's cool to hear from Dublin Ireland. Thank you very much for your comments and viewing my video 😁

[@michaelwright1467]

Great list here Kenny. And like you said, everybody probably has a different one. Sketches of Spain and Kind of Blue by Miles really spoke to me. Charlie Parker, Wes Montgomery, Hebie H, Chick Corea,...Man so many. Long live Jazz. I'm sitting here now listening to, the Last Concert by the Modern Jazz Quartet. Take care all of you Jazz fans.

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

Long live jazz 😊😁 👏 👍 🎶

Thank you, always appreciate learning others’ top 10 lists

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

I love looking at other youtubers top 10 list also to see their point of view compared to mine.

[@mpchead]

Thanks for the suggestion, I like your picks, very similar to my taste as well. I am gonna pick up a copy of the Don Cherry record

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

The Don Cherry album is great 👍

[@trentwhitington6839]

Nice list. Don Cherry, so many great albums. The man was not afraid of exploration, The artists of AACM out of Chicago, I've been listening to for years. Oh so many great players. They will take you to places through composition and improv that you would have never expected to go. Too many to name here, all different. Wadada Leo Smith's solo trumpet album Red Sulphur Sky should not be missed. A top ten list filled only with ACCM artists would still be a great list. Creative music at its best.

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

Thank you very much for your great comments about Don Cherry and thank you very much for watching my video ✌️

[@gabrielzych5189]

Love your list and Karma is an album out of this world. When I first heard it i was like a new man, i could not sleep at night. My favorite John Coltrane album is Cresent Moon, love more the L.S. and Coleman's Shape of Jazz to Come is my favorite of his. Don Carry amazing. I'ma check this fly with the wind. Probably I'm Sleeping on it. ❤❤

Recently started my jazz listening journey, I've been listening to pretty much nothing else now for a month haha. I'm thoroughly enjoying the journey. I never had (or have) people like your brothers who are into jazz, so I have to figure it out by myself. I'm glad to have stumbled upon your video, some of these classics I already know, but I absolutely love McCoy Tyners Fly With The Wind, never heard about him before or this record before. It sounds amazing. Thanks so much for these reccommendations! Looks like you got a splendid record collection. God bless from the Netherlands.

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

Thank you very much for taking the time to watch my video and post your comments. I am glad that you are enjoying Mccoy Tyners Fly With The Wind as it's a great jazz song. Thank you very much for viewing from the Netherlands and God bless ✌️

[@nysaxman]

Great list. I knew "Kind of Blue" and "A Love Supreme" had to be on the list. "Koln Concert" is a masterpiece. One album I wish more people knew about is "The Tony Bennett/Bill Evans Album" from 1975. It's just Tony's vocals and Bill's piano. "Waltz for Debby", "Some Other Time" and "Days of Wine & Roses" are a few of the tracks. I've been playing it regularly the last few days since Tony's death.

[@erichodge567]

Oh my God, man...I revere that album. It was the record that made me truly believe in Tony Bennett.

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

Fantastic record for sure.. thank you very much for your comments ✌️

[@TadThurston]

Fantastic suggestion -- one of my top faves too.

[@amymalina5073]

And Bill’s solo piano on the Bad and the Beautiful theme. Have been listening to that repeatedly. So beautiful

[@nysaxman]

My comment was referring to the first Tony Bennett/Bill Evans collaboration in 1975. "The Bad & The Beautiful" is from the second collaboration in 1977. However, both recordings are masterpieces and should be in every jazz lover's collection.

[@dsonyay]

I have nearly all of those and a couple other ones that I don’t have Ive streamed before - and they are all fantastic .. only one I’m really not familiar with is the pharaoh sanders LP, which I’m streaming right now and it’s pretty cool. The Stan Getz LP I’ve never heard either, but I plan to stream that one as well. The rest of your pics are all outstanding. The Keith Garrett double LP - I bought that one a few years ago after reading a bunch of reviews about it and it piqued my interest so I came across a copy and bought it. Great LP. This is why I really love watching these type KZbin channels- because every now and then I will learn about a new LP that I don’t have or one I’ve never heard before, as is the case of Pharoah Sanders and boom - found something new to love. :) Excellent video. :)

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

I love the Stan Getz "Focus" album with the beautiful blend of jazz and classic music. I especially like the song "Pan" on that albums. The Pharoah Sanders album provides a lot of musical jazz emotion that is powerful and great. I also like watching other youtubers top 10 videos because I always learn something new. Thank you very much for your comments ✌️

[@jay1frk]

You nailed it Kenny!....Trane, Miles, Pharoah front and center...can't go wrong...I'm going to check out that Don Cherry album too since he got Pharoah and Gato Barbieri with him.

[@jay1frk]

Meant to add...thanks for all you do for the jazz community...America was the birth place of the music

Keith Jarrett's "Koln Concert" is the best-selling solo album in jazz history and the best-selling piano album with sales of around 4 million sales. "Kind of Blue" by Miles Davis is the best selling jazz album of all time with 5 million units certified sold.

The Tony Bennett/Bill Evans album is a great choice 👌 👍 👏

[@chriskroll4166]

It's very refreshing to see somebody discussing jazz and talking about their favorite jazz albums . I have a ton of jazz albums at home and my very favorites would have to be early Louis Armstrong or cab calloway or Django Reinhardt. If you want to call that jazz. In my mind it is. Also anything by Artie Shaw because he was a genius on the clarinet. Also anything by Duke Ellington or count Basie with Joe Williams on vocal. 🙏

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

I consider that jazz and they all are jazz legends to me...great choices 👏

[@SmartDave60]

Nice list. A record I’ve listened to for over 30 years is Kenny Wheeler “Gnu High” featuring Keith Jarrett. Magnificent Thanks!

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

Thank you...and thank you very much for your comments ✌️

[@patrickgaffey8752]

Outstanding selections. I knew I was in the right place when you started with Don Cherry. But I've looked at so many top 10 jazz album lists. Almost all include Kind of Blue, for good reason, but I have not seen one that includes Eric Dolphy's Out to Lunch. It's an all-star album, and Eric worked his butt off, writing great arrangements and rehearsing like crazy. It is the greatest jazz avant-garde album. Why does everyone leave it off their list? Herbie Hancock! Tony Williams! Bobby Hutcherson! Richard Davis! The rhythm section is out of this world! Put it on your next list!

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

I have that album and it is a marvelous album for sure 👌

[@gordonsheets9817]

Just stumbled into your page - knew immediately we are kindred spirits when you put "Fly With the Wind" in your top 10. Also looked at your top 10 fusion albums and got further affirmation with your choice of Weather Report and Bitches Brew. Never saw Miles, but saw Weather Report 3 times, and each concert was the best concert I ever attended. I've seen McLaughlin and think he is from another planet. Furthermore, you picked Billy Cobham and George Duke. Don't know if you've seen the two of them doing "Rush Hour" on KZbin, but if not I highly recommend. Gotta get some time to look through your videos, but in the meantime suffice it to say I think McCoy was the very best and also most underrated jazz pianist. When he died, I cried. I'm out in Oregon, but if you're around here somewhere I'll look you up and hope for friendship. Thanks for your valuable, hard work.

The Koln concert was my dad's favourite jazz album and he would play it on record every Sunday. It's the reason why I studied piano. Thank you for your videos!

Thanks Kenny, great collection. Peace

Hi, I have just watched this upload with a lot of interest & checked out the ''McCoy Tyner - Fly With The Wind'' on the strength of your recommendation, I've ordered a copy from Discogs after hearing the title track, Thank you very much.

Your very welcome and thank you very much for viewing my video i really appreciate it 😊. I hope that you enjoy the album ✌️

Great video. Some albums I don’t know yet and will listen to. I just subscribed. Looking forward to the fusion list. One suggestion: it would be nice if you could say a favorite track or two for each album. On the other hand, we can listen to everything and draw our own conclusions, LOL.

I love lists like this. Every jazz listener has a different Top 10, but you have several here that I really like, such as Getz' Focus, Coltrane's A Love Supreme, The Koln Concert and Mingus Ah Um, so that gives me confidence I will find enjoyment in the recordings you included that I don't know, such as McCoy's Fly With the Wind and Pharaoh Sanders' Karma LP. Thank-you very much.

[@andrewlim7751]

Yes, your top 10 and mine are completely different.

Change of the Century! My favorite classic Ornette album, too! It tend to fly under the Radar in discussions of the classic quartet releases of his. And it's never received a great audiophile vinyl release AFAIK, unlike , say, Shape of Jazz to Come and This is Our Music, or an SACD one such as the Shape of Jazz has had. BTW, have you ever heard Sanders's Trance of Seven Colors, in which he plays with Moroccan Gnawa musicians? It's a great listen, highly recommended.

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

I have never heard of that album but ill definitely check it out, thanks for the recommendation and your comments ✌️

Wonderful list- love that Sketches was on there. In the Miles catalogue I feel like it doesn't always get the props it deserves.

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

I agree with you about Sketches of Spain 👏 👏 🎶

[@leecourtney1225]

@@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews It's breath taking and the reason that Kind Of Blue, Sketches, Bitches Brew and On The Corner are the obvious choices from Miles are because they are singularly culture shifting pieces. Looking at the difference in all them works just shows you how great Miles really was. Compare any of them to one another and it's almost impossible that they came from the mind of the same person (obviously with some great collaborators)

[@heloisagiraldi]

I absolutely adore Inner Voices; because I'm Brazilian it resonates so deeply with the essence of Bossa Nova. It's truly one of the best albums for me.

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]

It is a fantastic album for sure. Thank you very much for your great comments. ✌️

You're wrong, my friend. Keith Kölner Concert gets a lot of recognition, at least here in Europe. A Masterpiece.

Bruh Kenny, You are my Dude! My all-time favorite Jazz group are the Crusaders. I first heard "Free As the Wind" album in HS in 1976.

Happy to see Keith Jarrett / Koln Concert made your list. On the Davis UHQR, I can only imagine the quality on it. I just recently found out about Quality Record Pressings and it sounds like they stand by their name. I do have a Norah Jones on 200 gram pressing from Quality Records and it sounds amazing. One more thing, I would like to recommend a couple of Ahmad Jamal Trio, 1958 Pershing Lounge and Live at the Montreal Jazz Festival 1985. Thanks Kenny!! Keep up the great work!

[@kennysaudiophilerecordreviews]
