I probably have around 450 'jazz' albums depending on how you classify 'jazz'. That's about 20% of my collection.

I have a lot of jazz records mainly BlueNote, probably 95% of it is in the late 50's to mid 60's, so that classic hard bop era. Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers is my all time fav group, I also enjoy the early Herbie Hancock stuff. My biggest surprise was Katanga by Curtis Amy and Dupree Bolton....brilliant!!

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. |

in 1978 when I for a year was studing psychology and living in the city of Ĺrhus in Northern Jutland. It was a quite special year which I remember well, and this record is quite a lot for me a part of that time. Edited by David_D - February 28 2023 at 05:29 |

I've added one more record to my mainstream Jazz section, a record I before had decided to sell, so it was on my sell list for some years. Now I changed my mind and put it back in my collection, not least due to its special recording and very good sound quality, plus the fact that it's other kind of Jazz (Dixieland) than all my other Jazz records. It is Climax Jazz Band (CAN) - direct to disk (1977) Edited by David_D - March 03 2023 at 06:14 |

Jazz-Rock as a whole is definitely my favourite in this part of my collection, and I became very fond of a number of albums in this style already in mid-'70s, in my late teenage years. Some of them I love to this day, and they're among my most fave regardless genre: Mahavishnu Orchestra (USA) - Birds of Fire (1973) Osibisa (Ghana) - Osibisa (1971)
