What's the track that Us3 sampled on this?
Ah yes, thought so. I really like Herbie's stuff.It's the bould Herbie Hancock again, Cantaloupe Island, I think it's called
Skip Alice Coltrane, Pharoah Sanders and that kinda stuff.
I don't know if everyone is avoiding the mention of Miles Davis because he's too obvious but if you're looking to get into jazz and you haven't tried Kind of Blue then you're missing out big time. There are lots of albums of his that I prefer but it's highly regarded for a reason.
Other classic Davis albums would be L'Ascenseur Pour L'Échafaud (a soundtrack that more than stands on its own) and Sketches of Spain (including a jazz setting of Rodrigo's "Concierto de Aranjuez" which strays into Morricone territory).
His later electric period is a little harder to take but well worth the effort. Albums like In a Silent Way, Bitches Brew and On the Corner all have a lot going for them. The live albums from this time are hugely satisfying, Live at the Fillmore East in particular blows my mind.
Where do you find the stations? I followed these instructions: About free radio - Google Play HelpI love listening to one of the Jazz stations on Google music when I'm doing stuff, then when I hear something I like I hop on it.
An imperfect system, but you'll find stuff you actually like.
Sacrilege! Journey in Satchidinada is an very listen, and spellbinding.

Have you got any Eric Dolphy? Out to Lunch and Conversations are terrific.Nope I've a fair few Miles records and love them. I said at the top of the post I was looking for recommendations beyond the usual heavy hitter, hence the lack of Miles mentions in the thread!

Yeah, great album that. Someone recommended A Monastic Trio a while back, I enjoyed that as well.

That Herbie Hancock album (Maiden Voyage) that @travispickle mentioned would be a good one maybe... or Mingus Ah Um... Those Donald Byrd ones are great - A New Perspective is another one that I like, one of my favourite record covers too
