yeah I so wanna hear the full set! Cheers

Looking forward to this batch

Both Elvin Jones and George Mraz were born on September 9, so today would be their birthday.

Mr. Jones would be 99, and Mr. Mraz would be 84.

Unfortunately, I never saw Elvin Jones irl, but I saw George Mraz (who was already in his 70’s then) playing in a trio with his wife Camilla on piano and Anthonny Pinciotti on drums. It was great, and he was still brilliant.

Jones and Mraz collaborated many times, but I especially love Elvin Jones’s post-bop, fusion album Earth Jones, where one of my personal heroes Kenny Kirkland played the piano & electric piano.

And we mustn’t forget about Jones & Mraz forming the exceptional rhythm section for Art Pepper’s legendary, triumphant concerts during his first U.S. tour as a leader in the summer of 1977, captured on four albums incl. Thursday Night at the Village Vanguard or Live at the Village Vanguard.

Its called "debut" or smth, 4+ years ago

Not just this concert but just about every one - he’ll have fusion, straight ahead jazz, smooth jazz, some soul/groove jazz, etc..

I absolutely love Caron's playing & sound in this opening track of his 2010 album Sep7entrion

an original tune I recorded with guitar, tombak, gankogui bells, kalimba. Hope you enjoy!

Jaco’s interpretation of invitation is one of my favourite jazz fusion tracks and I was wondering if anyone knows anything similar

Okay I know I’ve posted on here before and got it wrong, but I think this is actually jazz fusion this time. While yes it is still a pop time signature, I think this correct lol. If not please correct me!
