Lets have a jazz general thread. Discuss your recent listens or discoveries or whatever.
Today is Jimmy Knepper's birthday. We've all heard him on Mingus's records but does anybody like any of his other work?
Been listening to pic related a bit lately and enjoying it. Vaguely reminds me of some of Charles Ives' earlier experiments with competing parts.
