The Bill Evans “Sunday at the Vanguard” record absolutely kills for the exact reasons you touched on. I love hearing the occasional voices and snippets of conversations that pop up here and there. It really makes the whole vibe and elevates the listening experience. I appreciate your other suggestions too. Grabbed Takin’ Off today and I love it!

Great recommendations. I spent my Sunday rolling them. The "In a Silent Way" track is a good one to put the day to rest. Nice and mellow.

Everyone of your videos is like Christmas. New Artists, new albums, new musical rabbit holes to dive into. Many thanks...

As a brazilian collector I'm glad that you put the flavor of brazilian music into your top ten!! I would suggest that you include more brazilian options to your followers. US and Brazil are the two big countries in America that incoporated the african music in our cultures and provide the world with a rich variety of genres, styles, grooves and swing.

I've come a long way to actually listen to an entire video on jazz. Thanks.

MILES of course , LEE MORGAN, all great picks. I'd like to suggest a totally overlooked album by JIM HALL : CONCIERTO DE ARANJUEZ. Personnel will blow you away. Paul Desmond, Chet Baker, Ron Carter, Steve Gadd and Roland Hanna. Much Love & Peace.

an impossible challenge but having said that here goes in no particular order : Miles Smiles - Miles Davis No Count Sarah - Sarah Vaughn Flirting with Twilight - Kurt Elling Complete Pablo Solo Masterpieces - Art Tatum The John Coltrane Quartet Plays It´s Time - Max Roach Science Fiction - Ornette Coleman Bird is Free. Rockland Live Performances- Charley Parker Free for All - Art Blakey The Jody Grind - Horace Silver And His Mother Called Him Bill - Duke Ellington Thrust - Herbie Hancock I went over a bit , Oh well

love your stuff, man. Thanks for another great video.

Great list. Many of those I often play as well. Thanks again!

It's amazing how many of these are on my heavy rotation list too. Agree about Cannonball, it's my favorite too. Keep up the great work!

Thanks Maz for reminding me of some great titles in my collection!

Great selection!

Glad you have a Miles album in your list. He is a great favourite of mine. I have over 60 CD’s of Miles plus 40 odd Vinyl Albums, including Kind of Blue on a Columbia 6 spot which I don’t play as I have a further copy of this album. Some thin’ Else is also in my collection, a superb album. Enjoy your videos and I have subscribed.

great video. Thanks for sharing , wonderful pic ups. Like a lot Hank Mobley soul station

Love this video ! It will definitely help guide me further down the rabbit hole of jazz

Excellent choices and quite a few I've not heard ,but will be very soon. thank you.

Great video, Mazzy! Thanks.

Nice selections. Love the Dolphy!!

When I started watching I began to formulate what I would add how. Sidewinder was the first came to mind. Love the records you showed. My collection is very small but I do listen to jazz. Maybe I’ll jump on this. Thanks mazzy.

Great selections!

Great video, great albums.

This is the video I've been waiting for you to do. I absolutely love your Jazz videos Mazzy have learned so much from them and continue to. I'm an old acid rock guy from the late sixties and early seventies but Jazz has moved into my house. Thank you

Great list Mazzy

that cannonball adderley album is the bomb,,, and the other albums you showed are cool,too,mazzy!

Here we go, Mazzy. Following your video on the top 10 rock records played most and my comments on jazz vs rock on my „playlist“ I am greatly with you in your choices. Many thanks! (I still need to get the Dolphy record:-)

spot on, goin to see Herbie at the Newport Jazz fest this sunday...excited, great vid..

Love all your choices!

Cool video Mazzy..I am taking notes..Although I like my Chet Baker with a trumpet in his mouth much more..got some great suggestions..thanks Mazzy..❤❤👍glen

Mazzy damn cool 10 Dolphy is definitely the surrealist of jazz Out There is tops IMO the cover tells the story of that album . I always love to here Dolphy with Carter when those 2 get together instant classic . Have a great weekend Mazzy.

Fine selection. Love that Miles one, wish I had the Mose one on vinyl, and that Dolphy record is sitting here after trying it only two or three times. Time to get it spinning again.

Beautifully said Mazzy...Sunday at the Village Vanguard...my go to jazz recording (waiting for the Craft reissue). In a Silent Way (my fav MD) again, you've put jt beautifully! Many thanks

A magnificent selection, thank you for sharing. So pleased to see The Sidewinder there - one of the 1st jazz records I ever purchased along with Matador by Grant Green and both played to excess ✌️

Great Video Mazzy!!!

I’ve got sooo many Mose albums it’s ridiculous. Still can’t get enough. Like you were saying, my video from a couple of years ago, top 10 psych albums has been getting a lot of comments recently. “That’s not psych, how come you didn’t show xxxx ?” Etc etc. Love that Herbie and of course that Morgan LP. Have some Horace Parlan but not that one. I’m going to do a Blues top 10 I listen too tomorrow. Thanks for sharing and stay cool.

Nice video, I picked the Dolphy and Miles records in my own video haha. The Dolphy I bought based on your recommendation video

At the risk of repeating this comment: 10s across the board! I've never seen a vid that got me dead-to-rights, album-by-album. A friend of mine played drums for Mose when he toured the southeast in the 80s and 90s. He told me there is NEVER a straight-ahead backbeat on any Mose track. Listen to Mose now, knowing this, and it's something you can't "unhear." Legend has it that Mose attended Ole Miss for a brief period. He couldn't afford housing, so he slept in a hammock he slung underneath the university's water tower. Apocryphal? Perhaps. But Mose DID play frat parties to pick up chump change.

Mongo Santamaria's cover of "Watermelon Man" was a Top 10 radio hit in 1963, too. Very glad you acknowledge the terrific Horace Parlan, who ought to be better known. (I'd put Barry Harris, Harold Mabern and even Hampton Hawes and Ray Bryant in the same category -- great pianists all.) I love that vintage A&M sound, too -- and everything Sergio Mendes recorded for them with Brazil '66 is fantastic sounding. I'll start looking for "Primal Roots." Thanks for a very enjoyable list!

Hi Mazzy - I love your channel and your personality. I went through my jazz records and here are my most played: Chet - Chet Baker Chet Baker Sings Ready Freddy - Freddy Hubbard Oliver Nelson - Blues and the Abstract Truth Billie Holiday - Songs for Disingue Lovers Billie Holiday - Lady in Satin (I know some people don't consider it jazz) Kenny Burrell - Midnight Blue Ronnell Bright Trio (S/T) Patricia Baker - Cafe Blue Kenny Durhan - Quiet Kenny My number 11 - KOB. Thanks for all you do for the VC. Best, Johnny K.

I am new to channel, very enjoyable to watch your video 😮😮😮

Midnight Blue is an album I listen to more than many others, jazz or otherwise

Greetings from brasil! It’s Nice to see you listening sergio Mendes, flora purin, airto Moreira e etc

Oh Mazzy - "Light as a Feather" would have been no. 11 in my "The Ten..."-video. It's SUCH a great album and the tunes are almost like parts of the same oeuvre. And even if I'm normally not into vocal jazz (and prefer an acoustic piano from an electric) here it just works SO great! Damn - I should have expanded my list to 11 😇

thanks for all your many posts they keep me company while having my morning coffees ....... have you ever covered songs that changed music

Saw Chick Corea at Rosy's in NOLA in the 70s. My salad days!🤠👍 BTW Maz, nice shirt 😅

i have one Mose allison album,love the way mose sings!!

You are right. It all starts with Charlie Parker. It’s not audiophile music, who cares; but it changed jazz forever. Bird lives!

The Dolphy album is great. I like Out To Lunch also very much

Another very enjoyable and thought provoking video. My own go to records are three or four by Charlie Mingus recorded between late fifties to mid sixties, Coltrane's Giant Steps (Mr PC on rotation at the moment). Others would be 'Chris McGregor's Brotherhood of Breath' from 1971 (South African band, based in London), Carla Bley 'Selected Recordings ECM', Trilok Gurtu 'Spellbound' and Ghost-Note 'Swagism'. Oddly, almost bought 'Somethin' Else' yesterday, obviously need to check it out as it sounds right up my street.

Agreed on Something Else, Sidewinder. I pull Bill Evans Portrait in Jazz more often.

Mazzy, almost fell out of my chair when you pulled out "Light as a Feather", first. For me, it is the best. Certainly has something to do with being my first foray into jazz. I too have the original Polydor edition. Sure I'm not telling you something you don't know, but "Encounter", is a wonderful album by Flora Purim. Stay well

Nice list Mazzy. Want to cast another vote for Dolphy's Out To Lunch. Really liked seeing Horace Parlan on your list, someone who doesn't get much love from the VC. BTW, do you have the That''s It! record by Booker Ervin on Candid? The Horace Parlan Trio are backing him up. Great record.

Albert King even covered Watermelon Man on Live Wire Blues Power.

500 Miles High, Mazzy!

Mazzy, that was really good, but what I really need is a video on how to water succulents. Thanks in advance.

cool album cover on Out There enjoyed the video

Cool selection! Charlie Parker was an absolute giant. Instead of the Eric DoIphy I would’ve picked the John Coltrane & Johnny Hartman, which is a fabulous sounding record, beautiful tones. One to watch out for is a very talented lady called Wendy Marcini, no albums yet but has a few EPs and singles. Nice vibe!

Young Man Blues is the Mose Allison song on Live at Leeds. Eyesight to the Blind is by Sonny Boy Williams II. Out to Lunch is another accessible avant grade record by Dolphy. I haven't heard the one you recommend here but I'll check it out. Great video.

Great picks and glad you were willing to in some cases go outside the narrow confines set by the jazz police.

I was wondering if you listen to newer jazz artists? Like Adrian Younge (Jazz Is Dead), Terrace Martin and Kamasi Washington. It would be interesting to have a video about these newer cats who are carrying the torch for jazz in the 21st century

I was just about to berate you for the lack of Bird and you pulled it out the bag. The Dials and Savoys are everything you say, but so much more: that palpable sense of ecstasy and freedom and I swear I hear spiritualty too. Bill Evans' 'Explorations' is my most-played jazz record: there are occasions though when I think Scott is far too busy, but it's obviously what Bill wanted so fair play to him. Love the Chet Baker and Mose records. I would have had to include an Andrew Hill and Joe Henderson album in there somewhere. Very intersting and varied selection.

Mr. Maslov do you know The Body and the Soul by Freddie Hubbard? If not give it a try. Something Else is one of my favorites too. I own The Sidewinder too and that is also a favorite of mine. I own all Miles Davis albums but seem to gravitate more to his earlier bepop stuff.

Love Hancock`s first 2 records.

Thanks! Have you got a top audiophile jazz records? Ie best sounding? Also a video on your system? Ta.

Yep!

Mose is Awesome, I have all his Atlantic Records.

Enjoyed this list a lot. US3 was one of my earliest introductions to jazz in the 90’s. BTW I went to school with Groovy Ass. Owes me $10.

Can you do Polka next 😂

I collect jazz but I only have about half of these. I try to grab every Bill Evans album I find but they've gotten pricey lately.

I’d give a shout out for Kenny Burrell Midnight Blue

Great list! And, wow, amazing to see someone, specially outside of Brazil, recommending such an obscure record from Sergio Mendes discography. By the way, I did a jazz vinyl tag video mentioning other cool Brazilian music. Check it out on my channel.

*Wow. Nothing past 1975. That Mendes record is tasty.*

Something’ Else is definitely one of the greatest jazz albums of all time. My favorite one as well. Great video as always.

Love Mose Allison

M, Stanley Clarke "Journey to Love" please say you have it. Can't remember it not in my life. Best, D.

Thanks for yet another great video. Mose is awesome Mose knows! Would like to see a video on Duke Ellington

Sorry to ask this as I am sure you get it all the time but what Seattle shops would you recommend for jazz?

This could’ve been a “Getting into Jazz” video as well.

Killing jazz with Norman.

Parchment Farm was covered by Blue Cheer. 😊

Hi, did I miss Monk in there or did you mention him? Monk's Music, Brilliant Corners, Monk's Dream, and Misteriosi (plus others) are all way up there in the pantheon of great jazz.

Sun Ra Jazz in silhouette

I don't think it's "pigeonholing" to keep the Monkees out of the psychedelic category

Funny. People asked me to make this video too.

👍👍👍🇩🇪❤

It’s just call Miles Davis, volume one a blue note album

One of the best jazz albums ever, obscure and incredibly accessible, South Side Soul (1960) by the John Wright Trio on Prestige. Also Kenny Burrell's Midnite Blue, often rated in the top 10 ever. So accessible.

Will you listen to these records with Davey Strange Name in Dante’s 9th circle of Hell !

Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV. If you get it in the right order, you get extra points.......🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Totally agree genres are people pigeon holing their own issues

You pull daily

Getz bossa nova box, CDs 1 and 3.

All great choices, Mazzy …but Ellington or Basie didn’t make your top ten?

Cannonball & *Nat* Adderley should fit nicely into your siblings-who-play line of thought.

fandabbydozie collection.....

Mazzy, are you deleting my comments? The 🤴’s 10 most listened to albums. My lasted podcast.

I own 86 jazz records. Not a single Miles Davis among them.

Norman, you don't love art PEPPER ? Better ALTO sax for me (with many more) this was my first accès to learn Sax in 1978)!

Hey Mazzy, I’m not sure what pressing you have of Something Else but I just recently bought the blue note reissue and I’m sad to report this is absolutely an awful pressing. It’s full of distortion and digital noise especially on side one of the main track, Autumn Leaves. This probably one of the worst sounding pressings I own from blue note records and it’s cut by Keven Gary, the guy that can do no wrong. I’m sure just a pressing issue but wow, this was bad. I’m thinking of playing it safe and just getting a cd copy, what you think?

Mazzy, you gotta go to Brazil lol. Sergio Mendes never worked or lived there for long, so his sound is not Brazilian

I only have 2 jazz records: Stanley Jordan and Pat Metheny. Otherwise, 😬
