Does Nina Simone count as Jazz, or is she blues?

Now this is a modern jazz classic! Boney James http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ExPO5X_Y2-Y&list=FLiaMPp0XwH5CSqnTadl6HPQ&index=126&feature=plpp_video Sorry, don't know of Nina Simone, paste one of her jazz songs up there and we'll see!

Now this is JAZZ. *Fattburger.* Great group. I've found a lot of these by listening to satelite radio over the last 3-4 years on the jazz channels.

Popeye, I reckon any Jazz with smoov synthesisers in it is pretty yuck from an aesthetic viewpoint unless its demented experimental stuff by the likes of Painkiller, John Zorn/Bill Frisell/Naked City http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLh914PnzPs or Praxis/Transmutation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UBNro8IkGw which Mr. Buckethead was in before a Mr. Waxl came a' knockin'. quote: ORIGINAL: Musicmystery Of course. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_1Pa6vE14c Kind of Blue is cool but I think his follow-up album "Sketches of Spain" was more compelling. “Concierto de Aranjuez” is fantastic: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVZq9Lk2hYQ and part two of the same track http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emd0vJfyk2E

I think Captain Beefheart is the closest I come to jazz. Run Paint Run Run (Doc at the Radar Station) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPGmgE0hlEI

Run Paint Run Run (Doc at the Radar Station) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPGmgE0hlEI Doc at the Radar Station is a great album. For jazz I would probably tick the “Lick My Decals Off” box for stuff like “Flash Gordons Ape” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZGrwDCEJNk and "Japan in a Dishpan" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGDl71AYjzc

quote: ORIGINAL: xXLithiumXx Does Nina Simone count as Jazz, or is she blues? Of course she counts as jazz (unless she's singing a blues song). If people are having Cab Calloway, she definitely makes the grade. I think the OP was after flashy instrumental bebop not torch singers, though. Still, if we are having jazz singers: Cassandra Wilson - Harvest Moon

Aswad -> RE: A thread for the cool people out there. (12/29/2011 3:11:42 PM)
I'm amazed nobody mentioned Diana Krall yet... that does still qualify as Jazz these days, right? Diana Krall - Live In Paris - Fly Me To The Moon Diana Krall - Live In Paris - East Of The Sun A lot of traditionals/standards in her material, but she certainly puts her own spin on it. Interested parties are encouraged to also check out Let's Fall In Love, Devil May Care and- obviously- Cry Me A River (personally, I prefer the version on Swans' World of Skin album, but that's definitely not jazz). I would point out some from a Dune-related LP (the one with a B side that has some Bowie acid on it), but I can't seem to find the band info. Anyone? Health, al-Aswad.

NuevaVida -> RE: A thread for the cool people out there. (12/29/2011 5:20:59 PM)
Yay, another cool music thread with popeye! Winton Marsalis - Linus and Lucy Etta James - I'd Rather Go Blind Stanley Clarke - School Days John Coltrane - Violets for your Furs Johnny Hartman - I see Your Face Before Me Deodato - Also Sprach Zarathustra Dave Brubeck - Take Five Miles Davis and his awesome rendition of Concierto de Aranjuez Tuck & Patti (my favorite duo) - You Take My Breath Away Tuck & Patti - My Romance Paco de Lucia, Al Di Meola and John McLaughlin - Mediterranean Sundance (Live in San Francisco version) - this is phenomenal!

Aswad, oh yeah, Diana Krall is great too! She and Elvis Costello are married with kids for a while now. One thing I (don't) like about her singing is that she either "holds back" or doesn't inhale enough air to get certain notes out strongly enough. I wonder if she has asthma or another breathing problem? Sometimes at the end she sounds weak and strained. Vida, oh yeah, I was going to put up "Take Five" by the Dave Brubeck Quartet.
