'Maiden Voyage' (1965) and Speak lIke a CHild(1968) are superb ones by Hancock
Thumbs Up

Maiden Voyage is excellent yes...Inventions & Dimensions is another of my favs from him...

Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers would be a nice addition to my mainstream Jazz section if I could find a highrated album with
a cool cover I could like. Big smile
He has several great album covers.....That match the great music.

BlueNote 84104

Art Blakey - Buhainas Delight [LP] - Amazon.com Music

BlueNote 84193


BlueNote 84029

Art Blakey - The Big Beat - Blue Note Vinyl Record Reissue

Wow!, that's quite a commitment, Cindy, and makes me more happy to have started this thread. I'm also very impressed by your Jazz collection which indeed shows you as a dedicated Jazz aficionado. Smile

As we know tastes can be different. Big smile  What I find to be cool covers are more like the ones from these albums:
       John Coltrane  (USA)     -     Blue Train 
Thelonius Monk  (USA)   -   Straight, No Chaser   
Sonny Rollins  (USA)   -      Vol. 2       
Charles Mingus  (USA)   -   Mingus Ah Um

Sure thanks! I, or we just needed a break as we constantly irritated/annoyed each other. That may of course happen again, but I don't really care about - or stay irritated for long enough - to follow such things trough anyway. Besides, more often than not, I just respond to what's written, without noticing who actually wrote it.

Sorry for quoting myself again. A bad habit of mine. But I seem to agree with myself the most often. And this new post of mine needs the context of my previous to make sense.

Chico Hamilton - Man From Two Worlds
Ahmad Jamal -  Extensions
Pete La Roca -  Basra
Paul Bley - Footloose

-and 20 favorites from my early to mid 1970's collection

Alice Coltrane - Journey in Satchidananda
Jan Garbarek Quartet - Afric Pepperbird

Mal Waldron - Up Popped the Devil
Music Inc. - Live at Slugs', Volume II
Eddie Henderson - Realization

...loads of favorites missing, but gotta stop at some point

edit: a bonus ten favorites from the 1950's (which I don't own nearly as many albums from)

Ahmed Abdul-Malik - Jazz Sahara
The Dave Brubeck Quartet - Time Out
The Chico Hamilton Quintet - Gongs East!
Charles Mingus - Mingus Ah Um
The Horace Silver Quintet - Finger Poppin' With the Horace Silver Quintet
The Cecil Taylor Quartet - Looking Ahead!
Miles Davis - Ascenseur pour l'échafaud
Jimmy Giuffre - The Jimmy Giuffre 3
Kenny Graham - Moondog and Suncat Suites
The Modern Jazz Quartet - Modern Jazz Quartet Vol. 2


A handful of my most treasured albums/artists aren't even represented. This I simply cannot live with.

Bill Evans:
Explorations
You Must Believe In Spring

Yusef Lateef:
Eastern Sounds
The Diverse Yusef Lateef

Bobby Hutcherson:
Oblique
Patterns

Richard Davis:
Muses For Richard Davis
The Philosophy of the Spiritual

Sun Ra:
The Nubians Of Plutonia
Angels and Demons at Play

Terje Rypdal:
Whenever I Seem to Be Far Away
Terje Rypdal

Steve Reid:
Nova
Visions of the Third Eye (as New Life Trio)

I also got a bonus post 1970's (which also happens to be a post 1980's) list of ten treasurous albums. Just like with most of the 1950's scene, I'm not nearly as well-versed as to what has happened in jazz for the last 45 years or so - as I am ca. 1959-1975. Perhaps interestingly, these are in total probably less "out there" than most of what you may find on my 1960's list.

The Necks - Hanging Gardens
Bohren & Der Club Of Gore - Black Earth
Sons of Kemet - Your Queen is a Reptile
Greg Foat - The Mage
Sonny Sharrock - Ask The Ages
Bremer/McCoy - Utopia
Rabih Abou-Khalil - Al-Jadida
Chip Wickham - Shamal Wind
Adam Rudolph's Moving Pictures - Skyway
Matthew Halsall - Salute to the Sun

Yes. It was just meant as a joke of sorts. I thought that was pretty obvious for anyone who's visited the PA Starter Kit-thread.

After all the talk about Jazz-Rock/Fusion in another thread, I'd like to show my love to these genres and refresh this thread. Tongue
