The 5 Jazz Recordings You Would Take With You...


stranded on an island. You can only take 5. On this magical island there is a system suited to your specific tastes and the front end of your choice. Keep in mind only jazz will be tolerated on this island. Any other musical format will bring unfreindly natives to your doorsteps who will take you off and boil you in oil. Only five, don't cheat. What's in your suitcase?

No, I am not going to say Blue Train by Coltrane or Kind of Blue by Miles that would be too easy and a bit reduntant. So these are the five I would play the most till the grooves literally wore out.

BLUES WALK - Lou Donaldson
The Melody at Night With You - Keith Jarrett
Gerry Mulligan meets Ben Webster
Boss Tenor - Gene Ammons
Stan Getz/Kenny Barron - People Time

With these five I could hold out a long time, maybe FOREVER.
