Jazz recommendations???

Bill Evans is a great jazz pianist. Check out Live at Montreaux, Waltz for Debby, or the Village Vanguard disc.

I think Anniversary (Stan Getz) would suit you well. It's my favorite jazz album FWIW.

I believe he was saying that you are the resident OOT jazz expert. Also what about Django Reinhart(sp?) he is probably my favorite jazz musician.

Correct. KDawg is undoubtedly the jazz authority.

Not technically jazz but Friday Night In San Francisco is probably the sickest instrumental CD I've ever heard in any genre.

anytime you put paco de lucia, al di meiola(sp), and john mclaughlin together you're gonna get nothing but killer stuff

everyone is ignoring that the OP said he wanted to stay away from bebop and free jazz. I love art blakey too, but not exactly chill music!

hell, if we are recomening the guy moanin, we might as well recomend indestructible and free for all, but, that isn't what the guy is looking for( [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img], I just wanted to pimp those albums for anyone who is interested in blakey)

it also just hit me. If you want chill jazz then check out Kenny Wheeler. He is a british trumpet player, and plays some very interesting stuff(and I mean interesting in a good way). His style is laid back. Also a really good chill album is Kenny Barron&Charlie Haden's Night and the City. Its just great
