Hi !

I'm a big jazz and blues fan and I'm trying to expand my horizon.

I'm listening classical artists like BB King, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, etc.

I would like to discover other artists, maybe less popular but equally good and worthy to be listened !

So can you guys give me some good jazz and blues bands or artists ?

I would really appreciate it !

Thanks

Looks like you like some blues and some classic hard bop, how about we try these artists:

Art Blakey

Grant Green

Herbie Hancock in the 60s

Lee Morgan

Wes Montgomery's very early albums

Let me know how those go and I will have more for you.

Thelonious Monk and Bill Evans are really accessible and good starting points if you like piano jazz
