I'm a 95% prog listener.... but if it's not prog.... it's jazz or classical.

Jazz makes up a good portion of what I listen to, I think prog & jazz have some things in Common.

i occasionally listen to jazz, i'm not keen on the early "trad jazz" but besides fusion i like some of the later or recent music artists such as miles davis (bitches brew, man with the horn, jack johnson), coltrane (love supreme), dolphy - out to lunch, the bad plus, herbie hancock (head hunters), the lounge lizards, charles mingus, matthew shipp, miroslav vitus.  . if you like anything slightly weird or off the beaten track there's plenty to discover in my list!

I love jazz and prog both for their musical complexities and skill required. Some of the prog influences do come from jazz, too, and not just fusion but even symphonic prog and neo-prog/post-rock.

I collected a lot of jazz on vinyl and, unfortunately, I don't get to listen to music at home as much as I'd like so years go by without getting to spin 'em. I do have Miles Davis on cds and love to have him in the car with me from time to time. He was pure genius!

It's one of my favorite musical genres and I usually listen to some
sort of Jazz everyday. My favorite Jazz musician is probably John
Coltrane.

i love gordon goodwin's big phat band. they are a very technical big band that should appeal to a lot of prog bands.

Jazz is a big part of my music listening. Between the two genres, I would say it's split 60-40 between prog and jazz respectively. Favourites: Miles Davis, Charles Mingus, Rahsaan Roland Kirk. I also quite enjoy the Scandinavian modern jazz scene - Esbjorn Svensson Trio and Nils Petter Molvaer.

I grew up listening to jazz and prog side by side and I think that a good portion of the albums I listened to was a good merger between prog and jazz . naturally saying Jazz I refer more to Weather Report, Miles Davis and Brand X rather than Benny Goodman.
For Collins the jump between Genesis and Brand X was no problem as a musician and not for me as a listener either.
