^^ my personal favorite... also, just about anything by Coltrane... some of the early Herbie Hancock (mid-60s before headhunters), Wynton Marsalis "Moanin'", some Stan Getz & Chick Corea... for new school, Terrell Stafford...

I'm an eclectic so I manage to have some jazz in my music collection, but it's kind old-school. Dizzy Gillespie--I kind of have a thing for Afro and Swing Low, Sweet Cadillac Ruth Lee Jones a.k.a. Dinah Washington--What a Diff'rence a Day Makes Lady Day...love her!--Strange Fruit is kind of my fave, despite its morbid theme. Louis Armstrong--What a Wonderful World and Hello Dolly! (I can't help myself!) Duke Ellington--It Don't Mean A Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing) and Take the "A" Train Thumbup
