By listening to it.

Based, now if you want an easy time i would suggest to listen jazz fusion gusic, its the easiest way to get to the raw jazz ,recommended albums:

Hot rats frank zappa
Casiopea 1979
Takanaka an insatiable high
Brand x unorthodox behavior

Then try to listen to the big ones like coltrane, davis wes montgomery etc

listen to the essentials: miles davis, john coltrane, and charles mingus.

also some Herbie Hancock

Listen to Hard Bop (go for top album on RYM or something, you dont have to know what Hard Bop means) and listen to albums by musicians that catch your interest.

avoid Coltrane, Mingus, Pharao Sanders, Andrew Hill, Brötzmann, Sam Rivers and anything else recommneded by Yea Forums

this place is filled with avant-teens who listen to select avant-garde albums only but have very shallow knowledge of the genre.

listen to brian blade

Bill Evans, because everybody digs Bill Evans, right?

>Step 1
Miles Davis - Kind of Blue

>Step 2
Charles Mingus - Let My Children Hear Music, Mingus Ah Um, Blues & Roots
Wayne Shorter - Juju, See No Evil
Art Blakey - See No Evil
Mal Waldron - The Quest
Lee Morgan - The Sidewinder
Django Reinhardt - Djangology
Dave Brubeck - Time Out
Miles Davis - Sketches of Spain
Pete La Roca - Basra

>step 3
Whatever you want. Bebop's kind of where jazz really shines as an art. The avant-garde stuff later plays with that foundation. The stuff before it either hints at it, or is just dance/pop music.

Start with the famous female jazz masters or else you are sexist

Can any jazzfags recommend me some Saxophone-centric jazz albums? Been needing some sweet sax recently.

Name a couple of sax-players or albums you like and I'll try my best

I haven't into jazz very much, but I loved Coltrane from the stuff of his I listened to. I'm honestly just trying to get an array of stuff to try out. Any and all recs are appreciated fren : )

Ok I'm just gonna throw some classics out there then

Sonny Rollins - Saxophone Collossus
Art Pepper - Meets the Rhytmh Section
Tina Brooks - True Blue

Tina Brooks also features another horn but the album is great so I'll rec it anyway. Brooks played sax.

Thank U

Shut up pussy

>Casiopea
Everyone on mu likes casiopea, it's just bad easy listening music. I wouldn't consider it jazz.
If you want good starting jazz start with Andrew hill he gets you into more difficult stuff.

Kamasi Washington and The Comet is Coming are pretty good recent jazz artists

lmao imagine being this much of a pleb

Feels good

what's some good easy listening music

My piano teacher used to teach a music appreciation class. These were the albums she used for Jazz:

Getz/Gilberto - Stan Getz & Joao Gilberto
time out - brubek
kind of blue, birth of the cool, davis
night train - oscar petersonn
giant steps - coltrane
best of the hot five and hot seven recordings - armstrong
song for my father- horace silver
the shape of things to come - orrelk Colman
mercy, mercy, mercy - cannonall adderley quintet
hearts of fire - new york voices
what's inside - new york voices
City kids - Spyro Gyro
Future Shock - herbie hancock
the rite of spring - hubert laws

start with kind of blue and bitches brew. get high and listen to bitches brew, and kind of blue again. then go listen to charles mingus ah um
