Quiet jazz albums?

Something along the lines of these albums...(or something different)

Bill Evans-Sunday Afternoon at the Village Vanguard
Jim Hall-Live
Thelonious Monk-Underground
Ben Webster-At the Renaissance
Lee Konitz-Another Shade of Blue
Sheila Jordan-Portrait of Sheila Jordan.

I don't mind if it gets loud at times, as long as it has a quiet interspective, explorative vibe to it. Anything good to chill to is good for me.

Check out some brazilian jazz. Soft, mellow, and so on. I've always loved it..........

Stan Getz, Jobim, Gilberto, Charlie Byrd, and so on.

If you don't mind a jazz-esque commercial things......Sergio Mendes has done some nice things over the years.

Also......have a listen to pianist David Benoit......very talented, generally very "mellow."

how about winton and ellis marsellis ? maybe misspelled, sorry. they played the peanuts- snoopy theme. awesome they are.

Miles Davis - In A Silent Way

Well: if you likes Jazz Music ! Lee Konitz - Another Shade of
Blue

A few names you should look into -- Bob James, Dave Grusin, Wes Montgomery, Joe Sample and Miles Davis (Kind of Blue will blow you away).

Stanley Jordan - Stolen Moments. Gorgeous jazz guitar album.

Kind of Blue - Miles Davis
Art of the Trio Vol 1 - Brad Mehldau
Steal Away - Hank Jones and Charlie Haden
The Gentle Giant - Yusef Lateef
You Won't Forget Me - Shirley Horn

Nina Simone, Etta James, Max Roach

Early Ahmed Jamal.
MJQ
Herbie Mann at the Village Gate
Chet Baker
Gerry Mulligan, What Is There To Say?

You need many Shirley Horn cds. Her intimacy is sublime.

Also, Duke Ellington's solo piano collection is wonderful, if hard to find.

The Maybeck solo piano series on Concord Records has some great entries that fall into the "intimate" category.

I'd recommend strongly all Bill Evans' albums You can find /obviously You like his music also, listing him first/, especially "Waltz for Debby" containing his most famous masterpiece with the same name, also "Loose Blues" and "Eloquence". Something earlier You'll enjoy - Errol Garner's "Misty" and "Body and Soul".

google it-Like "quiet jazz albums" then go to walmart and listen to samples

For guitar lovers, The Johhny Smith Complete Royal Roost collection is a MUST!!...a boxed set by THE premiere smooth jazz guitarist!

Ellis Marsalis: Heart of Gold
Ray Brown Trio: Live at the Loa - Summer Wind
