I was wondering how many people on here listen to Jazz music.

I'm in love with it. I also wanted to get some new people on my ipod to listen to as well as put on my dads radio station called Radio48.com (http://www.radio48.com/)

A couple of people i like are

Richard Elliott - I've been listening to him since i was very very little.
Hidden Beach - Ive kept up with them since they came out several years ago
SolFactor - i've seen them LIVE. ITS WAS GREAT.

and some others i cant remember off top. i gotta look them up again. lol but those are my top fav's.



plus do you guys know any other Jazz clubs besides the regular Cafe 290 and i know Apache may have a night or so.

depends what kinda jazz you like? I play the bass and i love jazz music without the words. its calming compared to most. If you like jazz music with out words and want to hear the best musicians in the world. Pick up a cd of bela fleck and the flecktones or go to flecktones.com and you can listen to some of there music. But they have the best bassist in the world. And all the musicians are world class. IMO

Richard Elliott is the F'in BOMB!! My 2 fav. instruments are the piano and the sax. He plays both sooooo well. hes one of those artist that you can recognize their music in like 1min. just because he has his own way of playing.

the man is great.

Victor wooten is the Bassist for the Flecktones. you can find him on youtube.com actually look him up on youtube and look at him playing amazing grace on bass. It will bring a whole new meaning to Amazing grace for you! I promise! :goodjob:

^Yeah, I the Seatbelts are pretty awesome.

I'm a big fan of Dave Brubeck. I really wish I knew more Jazz. I like it a lot, but just haven't put any time towards learning much about various artists.
