A Jazz Playlist

Choose from Mainstream, Swing, Big-Band, Bebop, Improvisational, Jazz Fusion, West Coast, etc .... Many sub genres. I enjoy both the older and more recent sounds.

  • Chick Corea - The Hilltop ..... A dance!!
  • Oregon - Witchi-Tai-To .... A Native American chant. Covered by several, I first heard it by Rachel Faro. 
  • Pat Metheny Group - Slip Away
  • Jean-Luc Ponty - Renaissance
  • Keith Jarrett Trio - Lifeline .... Approaching hypnotic. Swirls and builds, swirls and builds, then slowly fades away.
  • John Coltrane - Central Park West .... Always keep your eyes and ears open. You never know what might suddenly be there in front of you. I found the vinyl LP that this song is on at a flea market.
  • Charlie Christian - Seven Come Eleven
  • Charles Mingus - Wednesday Night Prayer Meeting
  • Django Reinhardt & Stephane Grappelli - J'attendrai Swing
  • Bill Evans - Remembering The Rain .... Introduced by Venus Flytrap at the conclusion of the WKRP in Cincinnati episode dealing with the real life stampede when the doors opened for a 1979 Who concert in Cincinnati resulting in the loss of life of eleven people.
  • Bill Frisell - Keep Your Eyes Open
  • Turtle Island String Quartet - Stolen Moments
