Especially seeking those with rec's for (say) quartets to octets featuring Baritone Sax, Trombone, and/or strong and prominent rhythm sections. I'm still pretty new to jazz, and while I've enjoyed some big-band/orchestra stuff in the past, my fancy for the past couple of years has been more towards quartets/quintets and the like. If it helps , the ideal standard for me is Charlie Mingus's "Mingus Ah Um", along with the traditional jazz standards from Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk and the like.<br> <br> However, I really really dig the Baritone Sax, Trombone, and strong, strong Bass/Drum duos. I've done some research tonight and have run across some names (Serge Chaloff, Albert Ayler, Charlie Haden, etc.) that I can't quite find solid samples of to test them out.<br> <br> So, hivemind, given that, what do I need. What will I love? And, most prominently, what can I request from kind-hearted individuals that aren't going to dig through obscure dusty record shops for them to gift me? tag:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.77678 Sun, 02 Dec 2007 23:30:25 -0800 jazz music baritonesax trombone rhythm albums recommendations Ufez Jones
