I would poke fun at your taste in jazz, but I looked at your chart and... does Chicago even count?


Haha! I tend to think of Jazz as a world apart from the blues idiom and its descendants for some reason so the only stuff that I would even consider putting in my overall is stuff like The Mahavishnu Orchestra's Inner Mounting Flame or Birds of Fire. I really should create a Jazz chart now that I can make custom charts though. But my Jazz collection is completely BAWP city!!! Laughing

Btw, Chicago's not even really, officially in my chart - just my listening bin. But, I guess it could qualify as jazz fusion in a pinch I suppose. I really like their first two albums.

A lot of people say that and I have to admit, I don't really get it. I do have trouble comparing jazz albums to, say, rock, but no more so than I do comparing hip hop to rock or electronic to country or whatever. Ah well, so it goes.

I'd like to make a jazz chart at some point, too, but it's one of many projects I'm poring over at the moment. Maybe I should move it up the queue, since now everybody seems to think my jazz favorites are all like the Al Haig Trio and bossa nova. Razz

Nah! Don't fight yourself, sp4cetiger! It's a battle you just can't win. Just embrace the smooth...

sp4cetiger's breakthrough wasn't quite enough for E & T

You 9-3

It didn't help that I prematurely voted for You earlier in the round. Of course, if I'd known you were going to add ten votes to the final count, I wouldn't have even bothered voting. Wink
