Default Anyone listen to jazz?

My favorite albums are Dave Brubeck - Time Out and Thelonious Monk - Monk's Greatest Hits. Who else listens to jazz?

(I'm betting Nightshade and DakarM do.)

Time Out is timeless. I hear it was just re-released in SACD and DVD-A formats. A must-own. (Did you see the TV commercial recently in which "Blue Rondo a la Turk" was used?)

I listen to jazz (surprise)

I listen to mainly older stuff though and I like the blues a lot too. I don't really have a lot of recommendations because I usually listen off of webcast or on the radio but I know what I like when I hear it.

Bčbo Valdez
Louis Armstrong
Fats Waller
Wynton/ Delfeayo/ Branford/ Jason & Ellis Marsalis
etc...
