^ You're definitely correct there. The comparison to Blue Note is less about genre and more in the sense that ECM has become intertwined with a specific style and sound, just like BN was decades ago.

I haven't heard those groups before, but I'm interested in checking them out now. A cursory glance at The Layette Suite revealed it's a product of the FAJE, a grant program facilitating French and American jazz collaborations. Last year, Jason Palmer and Donny McCaslin came to my school with a few French musicians (whose names I'll have to look up) developing an album under the same program. They had a great set: excerpts from their album based on Messiaen's modes of limited transposition.

^ Joey there are some absolute gems in the ECM back catalogue.
As you're a horn player you might enjoy Kenny Wheeler's releases for the label ('Gnu High' is my own fave by him ).

The recent-ish success of the Jan Garbarek/Hilliard Ensemble collaboration records has made the label (relatively) cash rich, making it one of the few jazz/new music labels still investing in new works and not just rehashing their back catalogue.

My professor is a huge fan of Kenny Wheeler. I think Enrico Rava's stuff is more up my alley based on what I've heard so far but Gnu High is definitely a gem. I'm relatively new to ECM music so I've been building quite the listening list, that's for sure.

^ The ECM itunes radio station is worth a listen particularly if you are new to the label.

Blossom Dearie and Grant Green are both on shuffle today.

^What do you think about Joe Pass? Thanks.

I was really into Charlie Hunter in the mid to late 90s, then he seemed to fizzle out into Pat Meheney and electronics territory.

rmpmcdermott · 2015-09-23 14:03:35

^ Joe Pass is a master, not doubt, but I don't often put his records on. For me, the two that really kill are Grant Green and Jim Hall.

Hall played on Sonny Rollins' The Bridge. What a beast.

Oh and Charlie Byrd...especially the stuff he did with Stan Getz
