THIS WEEK'S THEME: Wildcard (no theme) chosen by Ambassador Satch
NEXT WEEK: ??? Anybody want to volunteer to put something together quick?
If you missed last week's thread, DON'T WORRY. It's not too late. Here are the links for the mystery tracklist. Download the tracks, record your thoughts/guesses/evaluations for each one, and then come back and post them in the thread. Remember, people will be posting guesses and thoughts in this thread so don't read the thread until you have listened to the music and collected your thoughts in order to avoid spoilers. Track info for this week's tracks will be posted at roughly 8:00 PM (EST)

Posting with names and/or tripcodes is encouraged so that we can get to know each other. We also need more volunteers for people to compile our weekly tracklists. If you are interested, reply with your theme idea.
>Track 1
Sounds like late-60's Miles Davis in a sewer. Wasn't sure for a while if it was going anywhere but the groove just started. There were some nice sounds in the intro and it only just got tiring. Now that it's in full swing I'm enjoying it, but these instruments sound so dated so I dunno if I could take it seriously for long periods of time. Kind of like the razor tone on the solo instrument though, and it's complemented by the fact that he's dancing pretty tightly around a few notes for most of it.
>Track 2
Sounding like a Deep Purple song at the intro, sans guitars... Improves drastically once the solos kick in - that intro/head was naff. Some Miles influence in the trumpet, in that he leaves a lot of space around it. I'm generally getting the feeling that this is some early-60's Blue Note stuff, but I can't identify the players. It's all very bluesy and this sort of playing doesn't do much for me really, enjoyable as it can be occasionally.
>Track 3
Think I'm gonna like this one more. Sweet bass tone and tight drums. I love this mix of groove and noise, and what the sax is doing as it comes in is perfect. Sounds like Ayler on Spiritual Unity as it continues, but that's all I've heard of his so I don't know if this could be him. I like this track a lot.
>Track 4
It's Diz! This one's called Ool-Ya-Koo - I know it from the Victor compilation. It's cool how when they do it live they use it as a vehicle for all this scat improv. I guess there's an air of novelty about it but I don't care, it's super entertaining and I bet it would've been awesome to see his band back in the day...
>>61488450
>Track 5
So I cheated and paused this one whilst I worked out what the tune was. It's Sonny Rollins' Oleo, and I'm fairly certain this is Miles. If not then they're doing a damn good impersonation of the version on Relaxin'. I presume it's some version of the first quintet - maybe with Wynton Kelly instead of Red Garland? The levels are all messed up and the arrangement is a bit disorganised, so I guess this is maybe a bootleg? Look's like there's no Coltrane on here actually. Still fairly sure that was Adderley though. Not the best Davis recording, but the funky levels did highlight what the rhythm was doing and it was interesting to hear the massive difference between the backing for the two solos.
>Track 6
I like all the timbres in this, and what the sax is doing is pretty interesting. Some nice really minimalist guitar too - makes a change from Charlie Christian and Joe Pass. Beautiful tone on it too. I like how the bass has kept the pulse steady whilst everything else escalates. I think this one has intrigued me the most so far - I don't know much modern stuff and I want to hear more of this.
>Track 7
I'm a little bit allergic to string sections so we'll see how this goes. Oh - I wasn't expecting this at all. Erm, it sounds a bit like a TV theme from the late eighties? Or the hold music where I work... Yeah I can't even listen to all of this, sorry...
>Track 8
That's more like it - back to the start. It sounds like Satch to me, but would that be too easy? Liking the stop time at the end, and the stride/ragtime feel to the piano in general.
>>61488467
>Track 9
Well I don't know any French jazz artists that weren't in the QHCF so that's me out of the running for this one. Very boppy, has a 50's feel but the recording sounds a lot more recent. Whole thing is played very safe if it is modern, but it's tight and groovy anyway.
>Track 10
I thought I recognised this, then I realised it's our weekly dose of Caravan. You know I don't actually know this tune too well other than from these threads? Anyway, I like that sort of vamp thing the bass is doing. In fact in general the bass is kicking ass on this tune. I'm more interested to hear how he cycles through these changes than anything else. Piano was actually a bit heavy handed at times, but what he was doing was neat I guess.
