I enjoy Jazz.

I am enjoying instrumental smooth jazz because it really helps me relax. Is there any one on here that enjoys Jazz too?

 

[( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)]

Sure do. I like the laid back style you're talking about. And I enjoy the more vibrant upbeat styles too.

Unfortunately it’s the a music form that I don’t have much experience with . The pawn shop by my bustop plays smooth jazz all the time and I enjoy it. I’ll turn off my phone (currently playing the Spinners )and listen to the pawn shop music

I like some, yes. Sometimes the laid back stuff (not "smooth jazz", so much), sometimes with a little more oomph. The main thing is that there be some soul in it.

(Sorry about the sound quality on the last one. I know it's a bit muffled, but it's from a 1970 film featuring Azerbaijani jazz pianist and composer Rafik Babaev and his ensemble. It's hard to find classic footage from the Soviet period that has super clear audio.)

I love instrumental smooth jazz, especially guitar.

I'm really fond of classic 70's to 90's crossovers ever since I was little. Ironically, they are becoming popular again.

Did someone say Colombian jazz harp virtuoso?

...well I did.

Edmar Casteneda. The only time I've ever been blown away by a harp. I immediately had to find his CD (quite difficult, but worth it). I still can't believe that all of those sounds are coming out of his harp alone. There's not bass or guitar or anything. It just sounds like he fit a full stringed backing section in his hands somehow! I first heard him like 3 years ago thanks to NPR and I still can't get over it.
