Inspired by some posts in the random talking thread, post your favorite jazz artists!

Mine are the obvious ones (Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Thelonious Monk). Favorite modern day jazz bands/musicians are Medeski Martin & Wood, John Scofield, Pat Metheny, and Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey.

If you haven't listened much to jazz before give it a try, its great music to relax to and also good to get your girl in the mood

IM IN!!

Dizzy Gillespie
Thelonious Monk
Buddy Bolden
Louis Armstrong (not a HUGE fan but I still like him a lot)
Charlie Mingus is good as well.

I think that's what we all think of when we hear the name Louis Armstrong.

EDIT: That raspiness was so awesome.
