YouTube jazz albums to crank up real loud.
« on: December 30, 2017, 06:30:46 PM »
I told my wife that I'm on a "high" with jazz from (about) 1960 tonight.
My system has cranked out some GREAT tunes tonight, and I'd highly recommend y'all jazz fans check these out.
Makes me want to stay up to the wee hours with the SPL around 100, but I didn't soundproof the man cave well enough, and I'm sure the family wants to have some sleep tonight.

Couple more to blast loud, combos this time.

This record IMHO is the pinnacle recording of the bebop era:
Live at Basin Street - Clifford Brown / Max Roach Quintet

A good blaster from the peak of the post bop genre:
Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers - The Witch Doctor

My near field system is dead, so I've not done much listening the pasts few days.  :(
