ok, since seems there's no proper thread for those genres, here it goes.

(thought country is covered by some alt-country artists)

 

if it i'll be better i can make a proper thread for the 3 genres separatedly.

 

so, any fan, artist you like of those genres?

 

i'd find it :facepalm: if there will be none since in my view are the 3 main genres that originated modern music as we know it -at least for 3/4 of XX century- as it influenced many of the greatest bands/artists that ever have been around.

 

i noticied there's a revival of those genres in a way with fusion genres or subgenres of those, so i guess there should be any fan here, rite?

 

show up and share your knowlegde and likes about it!

:)

I've grown up with jazz so I love that. Not much for blues, hate country.

 

One of my favorites....

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXFaJpb-reg]YouTube - Sonny Rollins - Alfie's Theme[/ame]

I've always loved Jazz, the classics like Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Duke Ellington. Top top stuff.

 

One of my favourites:

I also enjoy blues, but don't know too much about it. I like the Black Keys, but would like to get into the older stuff more, I really enjoyed John Lee Hooker and Howlin' Wolf.

I like contemporary pseudo-jazz/blues like Norah Jones, Amy Winehouse and Duffy. There's also this Italian band called Musica Nuda, they're AMAZING!!!

 

I also like country since I grew up with it. My dad used to play Brenda Lee all the time, but I'm more drawn to Dolly Parton. You should check Robert Plant and Alison Krauss' album Raising Sands, it's damn good.

Oh, and Trond Gustavsen Trio are amazing.

great, gotta check some of the ones said that i didn't heard yet.

 

so you fans, prefer old or new musicians of those genres?

Jazz: Basically only know the oldies (excepting them^^), intrigued by new jazz. Recommendations welcome :nice:

Monk (Monk's hardcore)

I'll refrain from listing more... I really love a lot of jazz, my dad has a huge jazz record/cd/tape collection and some of it's boring but the good stuff is AMAZING.

 

Country, I like Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan and stuff. Old country is pretty good.

 

Blues is awesome, <3 Robert Johnson and B. B. King and etc.

some classics

(yeah I should have posted the Herbie Hancock version, but I am more into the Poncho Sanchez one.....latin jazz)

 

I could post so much more

 

I could post so much more

do it!

 

so you like latin jazz? good. :dance:

haven't heard of the band i mentioned then?

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15M62OtLrBQ]YouTube - Esperanza Spalding Live in Copenhagen[/ame]

Does Melody Gardot count? Cause she's great.

great, gotta check some of the ones said that i didn't heard yet.

 

so you fans, prefer old or new musicians of those genres?

 

Of country, definitely older, of blues, mostly older, of jazz, pretty even mix. A lot of modern jazz fusion is awesome.

Here's another awesome artist, I think.

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQudB09dA2s&feature=fvsr]YouTube - Concha Buika- Nostalgias[/ame]

Here's another awesome artist, I think.

 

that one sounds flamenco to me :uhoh:

that one sounds flamenco to me :uhoh:

Currently listening to Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington, and loving it. Must check out more jazz music too. :heart:
