I was talking with a friend about just how many amazing jazz clips there are on You Tube, and I started thinking: it would be interesting to see what would happen if I started a "Jazz Thread" here in the lounge.
This is a place where you can not only post any of your favorite vintage jazz clips form You Tube etc., but also where you can discuss any jazz-related topics (ie, favorite or influential artists, favorite tunes, improv techniques, etc.)
I don't recall if anything like this has been started here before, if so please forgive my redundancy. lol I don't know how "popular" this thread will be either... but I thought there might be at least a few folks here who would enjoy/appreciate something like this.
Oh, and let this thread be open to all forms of jazz: swing, be-bop, latin, funk/fusion and yes... even smooth jazz... anything goes.
I figured I would start things off with this very cool clip I found of Miles and Trane playing "So What"
