Can I have some good jazz album suggestions?
My dad is a musician and music is a huge part of his life. In the last few years he has really gotten into jazz and I would like to get him some really great jazz albums for Christmas. I enjoy jazz....but there are so many artists out there I don't know where to begin. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Yes I enjoy listening to jazz....but I have not delved deeply into artists and such. Thank you for your worthless contribution.
