Hi CD,
I honestly dont know what is happening in the current jazz world. My main interests lay in pre-1970 jazz, and I am trying to look at later jazz
so that I have found players like the Vache bros. Johnny Varro , Randy Sandke, Jon-Erik Kellso and so-on.
By introducing this thread I was hoping to draw in posts from people like yourself, (who very obviously has an interest),
to suggest new artists and perhaps new jazz modes that myself and others with the same level of ignorance of truly modern jazz
can sample and evaluate in our own old fashioned terms.
Just today from Forum posts I have found 2 musicians totally new to me (both from Mat).
So please, go ahead and post some of the music that "arouses" you (but without too much sophisticated musical terminology,
which quite frankly is way above my head). Start it coming and we can then evaluate the general Forum interest.
Cheers John
