Hey, jazz/fusion lovers here, point me to some quality albums, I am looking for sax lead, but love to hear other instruments in play too (trumpet/piano/bass/guitar/percussion
).
I am already familiar with:
John Coltrane
Branford Marsalis
Brian Blade Fellowship (Afinidad/Perceptual)
Maria Schneider Jazz Orchestra (majority of lead is reed)
Charles Mingus (Dancers, Mingus x5, Ah Um are on my list of favorites)
I am a fan of the more aggressive sound, forward and clear rather than softer laid back tones. Especially sax going entirely solo is absolutely amazing to hear once in a while (couple of months back I saw a performance of a modern reincarnation of the Bird's sound, and the horn players each took amazing solos with the other players taking a break).
And we all know this is head-fi, so great mastering is much appreciated these days, although my ESW9 is very forgiving so bad recordings don't cause much trouble either.
Thanks folks!
