Dave Brubeck Quartet - Take Five. This had to be there - Paul Desmond is super smooth too. Like Konitz, but geekier (Nice glasses guys!)

Funky! I love this...

Chico Hamilton - chamber jazz, cool. Careful, Dolphy will come back to bite us!

...and a flute!
Can you tell me any other good jazz flautists?
They are all awesome, thanks Robin!

Gil Evans - composer whose work with Miles are amongst the best ever recordings. Sketches of Spain, Miles Ahead, and their adaptation of Porgy & Bess denote Evans as a composer with great skill for merging orchestral techniques with jazz vocabulary.

Interesting, how much of Miles' work was he involved in? Just those? I'm gonna read up about him, sounds interesting...

Evans had a particular interest in the work of rock guitarist Jimi Hendix, and reportedly had a meeting scheduled with him to discuss building a big band around Hendrix, cut short by Hendrix's untimely death in 1970.

Very Interesting... I cannot even begin to imagine how that would sound!
Awesome!
