There is a very broad range of Jazz. I like some of it, but I'm not big on Dixie Jazz. I love the guitar greats...Barney Kessell, Charlie Bird and Herb Ellis. I saw them live a few years back, great show! I also like Pat Metheny. I could go on, but...

I like most kinds of jazz. My favorites are smooth jazz and classic jazz.

Classic jazz does it for me, especially Wes Montgomery, Cal Tjader and Stan Getz.

Yes. I like what most people would consider "contemporary" jazz, versus the "standard" jazz that my father likes. I have a few albums by Kenny G. (his 1982 self-titled album with "Tell Me," "Crystal Mountain," and "Stop And Go" is one of my all-time favorites), The Jeff Lorber Fusion, Hiroshima, David Sanborn, et al. Most of these artists hit their peak in the early to mid-80s with their brand of pop-inflected jazz. I know some die-hard purists who swear up and down by Thelonius Monk, Stanley Clarke, The Blackbyrds, Ramsey Lewis and other artists of their ilk, but I simply can't ingest their improvisational style.

OK, enough about Jazz ... yea, I really like it, like playing it too ... But, "BLUES" is where my heart is. And I am not talking about that boring same song, different words stuff.
Later,
Big & Fat Blues man

Getz and Cal....good taste my friend. Bill Evans and Maynard as well as Miles Davis all have a smooth flavor I happen to enjoy. Freddie Hubbard is just awsome when you're stoned out of your mind. lol
Toshiko's classic band stand jazz ain't half bad either...
