Memorable jazz lessons...
1. Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers - Live in Stockholm (Night In Tunisia
can *burn* at bop tempo)
2. Wayne Shorter - Adam's Apple (minimalism is good)
3. Jaco Pastorius - Solo Live (*all* instruments are melodic instruments)
4. Wes Montgomery - The Incredible Jazz Guitar of (lyrical phrasing)
5. John Coltrane - Giant Steps ('coltrane changes' are hard to get under
your fingers)
6. Jaco Pastorius - Word of Mouth (a personal definition of the 'big band'
sound)
