I guess some of you know how I love jazz-funk or just modern jazz with a backbeat. I am still lacking cd's to buy though.
My favorite jazz-funk albums that I bought so far are:
John Scofield- A Go Go
Charlie Hunter- Friends Seen and Unseen
George Benson- Bad Benson
Pat Metheny- The Way Up
Maynard Ferguson- Conquistador
George Colligan's Mad Science,
and other variuos artists, like Lonnie Smith, Medeski Martin Wood, The Yellowjackets, Terence Blanchard, Joshua Redman Elastic Band, Bela Fleck and the Flecktones, Chick Corea, etc.
I want to know a lot more artists of this genre, ones that are modern and that have come on the scene in the past 15 years. And I'm looking for new releases to dig, of this genre. Thanks in advance.
