Nominations Thread for ILX POST-1945 JAZZ ALBUMS POLL (nominations now closed)(includes Spotify playlist)

Seandalai has kindly agreed to do the tabulations , ie the important stuff that's beyond me , so without further ado lets start the nominations and see how that goes.

Will have no limits just now *unless* people get silly and we have to implement that rule. So please use common sense and nominate stuff you want to vote for rather than showing off how obscure you can go. However, I will make a biggish list of noms to start with and then everyone can fill in the important gaps of those artists. No doubt 20 people have different Miles & Coltrane albums for instance. So don't worry about filling in those important albums missing. Same goes for other artists nominated. I like things to be comprehensive as to avoid the shouts of oh album x is missing.

Have fun and feel free to start your campaigning for albums. The best thing about these polls is that you can discover new stuff, whether you're new to jazz or really into it. So please , don't worry if you don't know much, you can use the time between now and voting closing to come up with a ballot. You will enjoy discovering albums you didn't know. Hopefully we can have some really good results.

Apologies to gear if he wanted to run this since he started nominations years ago elsewhere on ilx but nothing came of it. But his nominations thread might help you with ideas.

EDITED TO ADD: A pre-album-era poll will come after this one. The nominations spreadsheet is at https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=tQQSM3avvN3nLk4gFzHWXdQ

wait I thought the Beatles poll was next

Oh sorry, I thought that the bands polls were their own things.

plus by the time these results are due wont they be over?

The band polls are their own things. Mark G was kind enough to delay the Beatles results this week while the 50s poll had its rollout (which turned out to be a good thing for the Beatles results, as they were improperly tabulated).

I figure whatever single-artist poll is up the week of this rollout will similarly take a delay.

Well the results wont be for a while, don't know how long we will keep voting open for, but at least 2 weeks I imagine maybe more if need be. Don't want to put anyone out, so results will roll out when a gap arises. No one has to be put aside just to let us in.

Ayler/Cherry/Tchicai/Rudd/Peacock/Murray - New York Eye and Ear Control
New York Art Quartet - s/t
Ornette Coleman - The Shape of Jazz to Come
Ornette Coleman - Change of the Century
Roland Kirk - The Inflated Tear
Charles Tyler - Eastern Man Alone
Spontaneous Music Ensemble - Challenge

Wait, how do these work -- are we only supposed to nominate stuff not already on the thread or do multiple nominations carry weight?

Nominate anything you like that hasn't already been nominated. Makes it much easier for sean & i to get the nominations together.

No compilations btw. If compilations are nominated please point them out. Live recordings are obviously OK.

A couple of things:

Alice Coltrane - Eternity
Bobbi Humphrey - Blacks and Blues
Charles Mingus - Mingus Ah Um
Dorothy Ashby - Afro Harping
The Mike Westbrook Concert Band - Marching Song I+II
Miles Davis - On the Corner
Mulatu Astatke - Mulatu of Ethiopia
Ornette Coleman - Chappaqua Suite
Rahsaan Roland Kirk - Natural Black Inventions: Root Strata
Roland Young - Isophonic Boogie Woogie
Sonny Sharrock - Black Woman
Sun Ra - Lanquidity
Sun Ra - Strange Strings

Anyway

Bill Evans - Waltz for Debby
Bill Evans - Sunday at the Village Vanguard (for these two -- are we excluding live albums?)
Sonny Rollins - The Bridge
Wes Montgomery - The Incredible Jazz Guitar
Wayne Shorter - Super Nova
Wayne Shorter - JuJu
McCoy Tyner - The Real McCoy
McCoy Tyner - Inception
William Parker & Hamid Drake - Piercing the Veil
Mahavishnu Orchestra - Birds of Fire (if we're including really fusiony stuff)
Max Roach feat. the Legendary Hassan
Miles Davis - Sorcerer
Miles Davis - Nefertiti
Sonny Clark - Sonny Clark Trio
Paul Bley - Closer

To get some obvious ones out the way:

John Coltrane - Meditations
John Coltrane - My Favourite Things
Duke Ellington/Charlie Mingus/Max Roach - Money Jungle
Mile Davis - Kind of Blue
John Coltrane - A Love Supreme
Duke Ellington - Far East Suite

when's the prince poll?

Duke Ellington & John Coltrane
Thelonious Monk and John Coltrane
Thelonious Monk Plays Duke Ellington

Couple of quick questions/clarifications:

1. Just albums and no comps, so I assume all pre-album jazz is out of the running? This means no Django Hot Club or Louis Hot Fives.

2. No latter day reassessments of material? For example, one could nominate John Coltrane - Live at the Village Vanguard, but not The Complete 1961 Village Vanguard Recordings.

Just want to make sure I'm clear early in the process.

I'm not sure on the 1st part. I think that is something we need to discuss on this thread. Maybe pre-war jazz comps would be ok? We will go with what the majority wants.

As for part 2 - yeah no box sets but the original live albums are totally fine.

i am pro pre-war jazz comps

I kinda want to include the 78rpm guys, but they recorded for the singles market. I vote save 'em for a tracks poll.

How about simply allowing comps that have no overlap with previously released albums?

Andrew Hill - Judgment!
Andrew Hill - Point of Departure

Sounds fine. Greatest hits type comps is what we want to avoid really especially when said artists have made albums.
xp

ut if you look at Louis Armstrong's Hot Fives and Sevens, you either talk about the whole massive block of recordings or you are talking about a "greatest hits" of that time period. They are not the equivalent of an album recorded at most on a handful of dates.

ut=but

i think for the pre-war era comps are ok unless most people object. Im fine with it.

I'd like to point out to everyone that Spotify has a fantastic jazz selection, pretty much all the bluenote for a start. So get listening!

Here's some more nominations:

Albert Ayler - Live in Greenwich Village
Art Blakey - Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers with Thelonious Monk

Sonny Rollins - Saxophone Colossus
Sonny Rollins - A Night at the Village Vanguard
Henry Threadgill Sextet - Easily Slip Into Another World
Henry Threadgill Very Very Circus - Too Much Sugar For a Dime

Everyone ok with pre 1945 artists compilations then?

think you need to extend that to cover stuff like the charlie parker savoy & dial recordings

wait, that falls foul of the box set rule

Thelonius Monk - Genius of Modern Music volume one (BLP-1510, 1956)*
Miles Davis + 19 - Miles Ahead
Herbie Mann - Live At The Whiskey A Go Go
Billy Cobham - Spectrum
Sonny Sharrock - Ask The Ages

*is this allowed? Technically a compilation of sessions from the late 40s

I dunno, he did have proper albums out. I'd be inclined to say no, however others might disagree.
Were the tracks on other albums? if not then i guess that would be ok.

It's a bit of a minefield if the Wikipedia entry is anything to go by. The 1956 version seems to be the first outing for the sessions on 12" LP though.

It's canon now anyway

well lets see what everyone else thinks and go with the majority.
If these issues occur again we can deal with it on an album by album basis and let everyone on the thread have their say.

I'm just dreading 80s herbie hancock gets nominated and people say its not really jazz and more electronic.
Or 70s acts albums are more funk than jazz and shouldn't be in it. That will be fun..

i see someone has already nommed a spontaneous music ensemble rec, so free improv is included (d bailey turning over in his grave)?

Here's a few nominations:

Airto - Seeds on the Ground
Patti Austin - Havana Candy
Lester Bowie - The Great Pretender
The Dave Brubeck Quartet - Time Out

Jamaaladeen Tacuma - Renaissance Man
Charles Tolliver with Music Inc. & Orchestra - Impact

Or 70s acts albums are more funk than jazz and shouldn't be in it. That will be fun..

Yeah, unavoidable though. I was listening to Gary Bartz "Music is my Sanctuary" last night and thinking it's a great album but the main genre difference between it and, say, War is that Bartz played with Miles once upon a time.

Vandermark 5 - Target or Flag
Jackie McLean - Let Freedom Ring
Dave Holland - Conference of the Birds
Art Farmer Quintet - Blame It On My Youth
Arthur Blythe - Lenox Avenue Breakdown
Clifford Brown/Max Roach (verve, 1954)
Don Cherry - Complete Communion
Billy Bang - Rainbow Gladiator

Obviously it's all subjective, but even though fusion/jazz-funk/jazz-rock/etc albums should be included in the poll, I don't think people should nominate albums where the other side of the equation is clearly more dominant than the "jazz" side, even if they were released by famous jazz artists on established jazz labels. I consciously tried to avoid nominating albums like that, for example the Herbie Hancock electro albums. Just because Herbie plays some keyboard solos on them doesn't mean they're jazz.

One good measuring stick is, how much improvisation there is on the album? If it's more about pre-written stuff than improvisation, then it probably shouldn't be here. There are of course jazz subgenres that don't fit that criteria, but I think it's a good way decide whether or not stuff like 70s fusion albums should be included.

so you dont think mahavishnu orchestra should be included but the miles davis rock albums are ok?

I'd say yes to that distinction.

The Bill Dixon Orchestra - Intents and Purposes
Bill Dixon - Vade Mecum
The Cecil Taylor European Orchestra - Alms/Tiergarten (Spree)
Milford Graves - Babi

I agree with this, but Mahavishnu orchestra records do have a lot of improvisation -- in fact they tend to do a pretty traditional round of solos over the changes kind of thing. And yet somehow in my mind they're not jazz, and I can't put my finger on why. Maybe it's just that they SOUND like prog rock records.

i would also add that The Headhunters and The Blackbyrds, despite being on Herbie Hancock & Donald Byrd albums, their own output is infact funk.

Freddie Hubbard - Red Clay

Actually I'd also say that Headhunters doesn't really feel like a jazz record for that matter. Thrust moreso.

I especially hope everybody who hasn't heard that last one, the Lewis, will check it out. It is one of the most beautiful, emotional records you will ever hear.

xpost: i know it's considered a classic by some and haven't heard it in 15 years but gave it a few chances then and it just didn't do anything for me except put me to sleep

clude the records I've nominated and quit micromanaging the fuck out of this suddenly-joyless experience. ―an excellent source of vitamins and minerals (WmC),

this is not a rap poll. and new order? really? sign of the times? naw. Norah Jones might be on blue note, but is she really jazz?

wow

I'm not 100% down with Zappa being on the noms list but you're just being insane here mr. BlindWillyPuller

Haha awesome, New Order ftw

C'mon pfunk, you know you want them in there.

I think one of the ILM bylaws states New Order must be present in the nominations for any poll.

I think one of the ILM bylaws states New Sockpuppet Account must be created to troll the starter of any poll.

i know sean does, he predicted it at the beginning of the thread.

xp

Gloomy Sunday vs Blue Monday

ilm with its new order and prince fanaticism reminds me of all those best ..........'insert genre' albums in the world cds in the early 90s that record execs made sure phil collins & sting were on.

Good call, we should have some Sting on here too.

New Order and Prince are actually the Phil Collins & Sting of ILM. Future mojo icons and multiple front covers await on mojo in a decade.

anyway added the sarah vaughan

The Greyboy Allstars - West Coast Boogaloo

thats my one nomm, hope it counts

Here are a few more ...

few days left to nominate albums (no more new order or prince- they're not getting included)

Ella Fitzgerald - Ella in Berlin: Mack the Knife
George Shearing - The Way We Are
Peter Herbolzheimer - Big Band Man: The MPS And Polydor Studio Recordings
Barbara Thompson's Paraphernalia – Live In Concert

got it

how long should voting be open? 2 weeks? more?

i don't know man this is a huge undertaking and if I'm going to vote in a way that's not random dart-throwing it should be 2 weeks AT LEAST. I'd be happy with a full month but I might be alone there.

Gerry Hemingway-Demon Chaser
George Lewis-Homage to Charles Parker
James Booker-Resurrection of the Bayou Maharajah
Art Tatum–Group Masterpieces, Volume 2 (w/ Roy Eldridge)
Art Tatum–Group Masterpieces, Volume 8 (w/ Ben Webster)
Tommy Flanagan-Beyond the Bluebird
Richard Grossman-In The Air

i don't know man this is a huge undertaking and if I'm going to vote in a way that's not random dart-throwing it should be 2 weeks AT LEAST. I'd be happy with a full month but I might be alone there.

can make it longer if that is what everyone wants? So let sean and i know please.

This is just too overwhelming and even if this list feels pretty comprehensive I feel we're missing stuff.

Couldn't see them on the spreadsheet:

Jan Garbarek - All Those Born With Wings
Jan Garbarek - Witchi-Tai-To
King Curtis - Live at Fillmore West

cheers
noms still open i suppose til tomorrow night. Dont think sean has set voting up so it shouldnt be a problem.

if he has set it up then noms will be closed when he lets me know, so add stuff now if there's anything missing. Once sean has set voting up its closed.

so you can still nominate until sean & i post here saying nominations are closed.

A month sounds good. There are about a million things on this list I always meant to check out that I would like to give a proper listen to before voting. How many votes do we get btw?

All will be revealed on the voting thread, but yeah a month is fine if it means lots of people will be listening to the albums, campaigning, recommending etc on the thread.

Clifford Brown and Max Roach at Basin Street
Frank Wright Trio
Frank Wright - Your Prayer
Bill Dixon - 17 Musicians In Search Of A Sound: Darfur

Les McCann & Eddie Harris - Swiss Movement

Tommy Flanagan-Beyond the Bluebird

Sean is setting the voting up i think so i guess nominations are now closed. With the extra day allowed for nominations i would hope noone will say they missed the nominations.

I'll start the voting thread when seandalai has done his stuff. No idea how long that takes, that's Seany's show (la la la la)..

ai really hope we got everything

william if youre reading this could you amend the title to voting closed, please?

got it -- I assume you meant "nominations closed"

oops yes! thanks!

Norah jones is on blue note. That album is prince's jazz album ,just like the zappa. And why shouldnt jazz rap be in a jazz poll if jazz rock is? And new order did really play that jazz fest but it is a bootleg so i can see why you should not include it. You will get a lot more voters if you allow the jazz rap.

We all agreed no. not one person said yes.

rap is not jazz

Votez ici people: https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dDRaV25yRVZQRlhxajhxVy1OM0k1LUE6MQ

I unilaterally came up with the 14th as the close of voting, we can change it if needs be.

a cursory search of BlindWillyPuller's posts suggest he's a sock established specifically to troll kerr

Yeah, my thoughts exactly
