Jazz anyone?? - AR15.COM

Posted: 12/29/2006 5:17:28 PM EDT

My musical taste runs the full spectrum from Classical to Heavy Metal and everything in between and on beyond. Just depends on my mood at the time.

Been on a Jazz kick...more contemporary jazz that falls into the "Smooth" Jazz genre. Groups/Artists such as David Sanborn, Earl Klugh, Najee, Steve Reid, Marion Meadows, Bob James and Hiroshima.

Anyone got any recommendations for some good Jazz to listen to ??

Always looking for something new to give a listen to...

Not Jazz, but 'Pink Martini' hits a lot of different styles of music, all done top-notch (have their first CD 'Sympathique' and saw them in concert with the Jax Symphony, very cool stuff if you are over 29 yo mentally).
