/agrees with early jazz fans. if you want to understand jazz start by listening to the people who have molded and influenced the genre. Miles Davis' Kind of Blue is widely considered as one of the definitive jazz albums, if you dont like that there is a good chance your not going to like a great deal of jazz. Bitches Brew is astounding, but you should wait on that until you warm up to it. Herbie Hancock, Duke Ellington, Charlie "Bird" Parker, John Coltrane, and Art Pepper are all wonderful musicians with great rhythm sections (when they use them, which they do most of the time. drums this includes you!). im excited for you and hope you like this truly wonderful form of music.
