This is a really important jazz piano album if you know a whopping total of 15 jazz pianists

Yah bro but it’s “thing: Japan” so it’s good

there's not even 10 jazz pianists worth listening to

there is room in my heart for just one jazz pianist

Name an album with a bigger inoffensive sound to seethe ratio. I would've completely forgotten about it by now if Jakshit scum like you had stopped, but here you are still whining about it over 6 years after the fact

I mean really worth listening to, that's much more exclusive than someone being able to do a passable job in a combo.

inoffensive

It is offensive though, the piano solos are redundant and the bassist can't stop making farting noises kek

Stick to anime soundtracks and other goyslop jingles

thread calling famous coltrane or miles davis album boring and overrated

This is correct, I mean ALS is not even the best record Coltrane made in that year.
You need to improve your standards if you really think that two-bit accompanist is worthy of serious consideration.

people who listen to this album think 22 is old

And scenery is not even top 50 best piano trio albums released in 1976 but good luck telling pic related that without causing a temper tantrum

zoomer death camp

the root of all the seething caused by this album is because a lot of people who claim to enjoy jazz are complete posers and only like it for superficial and aesthetic reasons. seeing normies co-opt something they have no right to supposedly claim to enjoy causes nuclear levels of butthurt because its like seeing their own reflection in a mirror and having to come to terms with their ugliness.

okay sure but fukui ain't one of them

everything he put out after 1964 is cocktail muzak

oops meant 1963, 1964 was the beginning of the end

Stan Getz

My point exactly

you know what i forgot intermodulation came out in 1966 so NEARLY everything he put out after, to be fair

To be honest, Evans was always kind of in the muzak sphere, but also unironically one of his best records is the live date in Oslo recorded in 1966. Though this might be my bias toward Eddie Gomez speaking more than anything.

okay then why did you include brubek?

He was goated in the late 50s and early 60s but beyond that he's just decently pleasant

better live albums and better rhythm section interplay. he can feel stiff in studio albums i admit

JAPANESE JAZZ IS RETARDED TOURIST SHIT

No.

mal waldron

Yes.

red garland

Yes.

Interesting and actually good pick to be honest.

No.

ahmad jamal

No.

oscar peterson

No.

monk

Yes.

art tatum

Yes.

kenny drew

Yes.

barry harris

No

sonny clark

Another interesting, but correct pick.

george shearing

Yes.

brubeck

No.

bud powell

Yes.

That’s being generous. It’s great jazz piano if you’ve only ever heard of Bill Evans but not actually listened to his music.

>chick corea

Unfortunately yes.

>herbie hancock

See above.

I know what you mean, kek

all of the things you said about evans can be applied to brubek though, probably even more fittingly

Fucking brilliant at their best, but they've just released so much ass music it's hard to talk about them as GOATs.

It’s great jazz piano if you’ve only ever heard of Bill Evans but not actually listened to his music.

You know, that bugs me about this album too. Everyone keeps saying it sounds like Mccoy Tyner and Evans but I just don't hear it.

they play way faster than the evans trio, use way more key and time signatures, more energetic drum solos, etc. i know they have that reputation but they played pretty "hot" at times despite being an iconic cool jazz quartet, i dont know what else to tell you

oh my bad i didnt realize jazz pianists could also telepathically control their drummers and play the drum solos for them as well

the best pianists arent just pianists, theyre bandleaders, and bandleaders generally decide which solos go where. cool self-report, tourist. why do you think jazzfags shit all over Scenery? there's barely any "bandleading" at all

cope.

and the reason why people shit on cool jazz has nothing to do with muh bandleading its because its inoffensive music that doesn't particularly challenge you to enjoy it. that doesn't mean its necessarily bad either.

cope

so literally not an argument than lmao

and the reason why people shit on cool jazz has nothing to do with muh bandleading its because its inoffensive music that doesn't particularly challenge you to enjoy it

I know retard, that's the point, Brubeck would push his bandmates and allow them to do weirder more unique shit by cool jazz standards. Bad bandleading often leads to inoffensive music. Isn't that obvious?

regardless of how much better of a bandleader he was or wasnt than evans, at the end of the day the type of jazz they made fit into relatively the same box. you can shit on evans for making boring cocktail muzak all you want but just remember brubek deserves just as much shit if not more. no amount of coping about muh band leading or 'pushing them to explore new territory' can change that

That's Scatman John, right?

let me ignore all of your arguments and just repeat the same debunked original point over and over

Next thread do the cowboy bebop ost to bait the jazzfags again

But that album's actually pretty good.

you have no points, youre just writing a bunch of nothing and expecting me to debate you over it.

evans will always be remembered as a more influential and profound pianist than dave take the elevator music to floor 5 brubek.

>mccoy tyner

No.

Are you retarded?
