Jazz runs the gamut from easy listening to complex challenging. There is the from the gut playing of John Coltrane to the intellectual work of Anthony Braxton. There are those who argue that ‘instrumental’ is pap – is Lawrence Welk big band or ‘instrumental’ pap? If it’s too popular does it lose creative credibility?  Mingus and Monk are two jazz masters who have never attempted to be popular &…

My favourite records
By Jack Bruce
"B.B. King Live At The Regal" is definitely my all-time favourite. B.B. is a magnificent artist. That whole album is excellent. I also like Albert King's "Born Under A Bad Sign" album on Stax and "Rubber Soul" by The Beatles. I like lots of classical music too.
I also like an album called "Chronocromie" by Messiaen. He's got these great ideas for writing music for all time. He's got one thing on there called "The Symphony For All Time". He wants composers from every century to write an extension of it so it will go on for all time. He wants the high instruments on the top of mountains and the bass instruments in the valleys and the other instruments should be in the middle ground all over the world. He's got a completely original concept of music. He's an ornithologist and he records bird song and orchestrates it. He doesn't use human rhythms. He calls it the rhythms of nature. Actually Chronocromie is a breakdown of every conceivable instrument in nature. It's performed by a percussion and orchestral ensemble.
By Ginger Baker
One of my favourites for many years has been "Duke Ellington At Newport 1966". It's very exciting. Also the "Jazz At Massey Hall" and Charlie Mingus. Also "Ray Charles At Newport". I have a bad habit of listening to any kind of drummers. I love the drummer on the "Ravi Shankar at Monterey" album. My favourite albums are mostly those with good drummers.
