I only listen to Chet Baker and Maynard Ferguson tyvm.

tonal harmony is white and all the innovations of post-bop were lifted from early modernist classical composers. Jazz is just pop music with classical musics harmony minus the blues tones. More theft from the blacks.

My nigga are you on crack

Imagine thinking Dave Koz isn't the greatest jazz musician of all time.

Jazz is not an exclusively black genre. Theres a shit ton of white jazz musicians better than most of the niggers. (Bill Evans, Krzysztof Komeda etc.)

I dont like Jazz that much
Often too relaxed for my tastes

I don't hate black people though.

>just play whatever lmao

Is Jazz the most intellectually bankrupt genre?

the few articulate and sophisticated blacks of the 70s and prior, versus the modern bastardised rappers and hood blacks

I'm willing to bet anything that you can't competently improvise over even the most milquetoast jazz standards.
I don't hate black but Miles Davis and 99% of his discography can burn in hell together. The greatest thing Miles ever did for jazz was give Coltrane a bigger audience.

hahahahaha what hte fuck

I have a beautiful black gf and am white myself (and secretly a bit racist).

kys fantano. your girl looks like shit.

>just play whatever

This is what brainlets really think.

If you don't like jazz that's fine, but there's no reason to talk out of your ass and show everyone how clueless you are.

/pol/tards and people just off the Yea Forumsoat who don't know where they are claim to hate black people. Yea Forums is one of the more politically left boards on Yea Forums.

>I don't hate black but Miles Davis and 99% of his discography can burn in hell together. The greatest thing Miles ever did for jazz was give Coltrane a bigger audience.
I am almost inclined to agree with you since Coltrane is my favourite musician but also Miles has some dope albums under his name. Funny thing is, he is almost never the best musician on his own albums. He was constantly trying new things, had amazing talent as a bandleader and one of the best ears in jazz though and that is definitely worth celebrating.

Thoughts on Chet Baker? What's his seminal album? Who are the most important predecessors and contemporaries of Parker

>Thoughts on Chet Baker? What's his seminal album?
He had a lovely tone and was particularly wonderful at playing ballads. Chet Sings is a sappy album but also it makes me want to hold Chet and tell him I'll never leave so I guess it does what it was supposed to very well.
He was never a super adventurous player, but he did sometimes found himself in ambitious company like in the chordless Mulligan quartet and on Jim Hall's Concerto. That gives him street cred that is mostly deserved. He fit in and played well in those settings.
Of his solo albums, Chet Sings, Chet and She was Too Good to Me are probs my favourites.
>Who are the most important predecessors and contemporaries of Parker
That's nearly half of jazz history.
My favourites working before and during the bebop era are Monk, Duke, Armstrong and Dizzy. That's if you don't include people who were around during Parker's tenure who went on to do even greater things later like Mingus, Roach, Miles, etc.
Though their playing in the bebop days is still pretty dope and helps give a fuller picture of their formative years.
