    I was going to write all the albums here but, I've just put a whole bunch onto a collaborative Spotify playlist, so far it's just some really famous 'must own' albums that I love, but feel free everyone to add to it:

    http://open.spotify.com/user/jos…

    so far:

    Miles Davis: Kind of Blue, Miles Smiles, In a silent way
    Coltrane: Giant Steps, A love supreme
    Thelonius Monk quartet with john coltrane at carnegie hall
    Bill Evans: Waltz for Debby, Sunday at the Village Vanguard
    Chick Corea: Now he sings, now he sobs
    Dave Brubeck Quartet: Time Out
    Herbie Hancock: Cantaloupe Island, and headhunters stuff but it's not on spotify
    Pat Metheny: Bright Size Life
    Keith Jarrett: Köln Concert
    McCoy Tyner: The real McCoy
    Thelonius Monk: Rhythm-A-Ning, Monk's Dream
    Wayne Shorter: Speak No Evil

    That list is limited by spotify's catalogue, I've kept it pretty old school for now, since a lot of those guys are required listening, but literally 100s more guys I'd recommend, lots of older guys (parker, gillespie, mingus) and even more newer guys.

    just everyone keep adding, I feel like some new jazz to listen to

    • Thanks, this is what I was really looking for -- a sort of definitive best-of.dMullins
