Re: [Harp-L] What are some good Toots albums??? What about chroms for jazz?




I like the Toots with Kenny Werner. Kenny is an awesome jazz piano player who comps very well. The CD is quite relaxed, mostly standards.


There is also the Chez Toots CD which is also excelent. Also relaxed, mostly french standards.

For more bop oriented, there is the Toots DVD, he lets loose on that.

Subject: [Harp-L] What are some good Toots albums??? What about chroms for jazz?



I am finally ready to start listening to the chromatic. Well, I am going to at least try to get into it. Most my listening experiences have been with chrom in a blues setting. I've never dug it.

What would be some good Toots to pick up? How about other jazz players? I have Clint Hoover's cd and dig that.

Also, I think I might pick up a chrom to noodle on. What would a good key/model be for jazz tunes? Like I said, I want to noodle. I don't think I'll play much chromatic, but I do want to at least understand the basics. Nothing fancy.
