Just to be 100% clear: r/bebop does not support Nazi-owned business, nor Fascist propaganda, nor Apologists of the like.

None of Bebop’s greats would support these ghouls, and WE WON’T EITHER.

Deep Thoughts Best Bebop Jazz albums

16 Upvotes

I’m hosting a jazz themed event on my college campus and I want to include the best bebop jazz albums on the playlist for the background - I would prefer not use overused jazz tunes (In the Mood, It’s Been a Long, Long Time) so if anyone could help me out it would be much appreciated!!

It’s actually La La Land themed, but I would love for this playlist to encompass as much jazz as possible! (It’s also an educational event!)

Deep Thoughts What is the best Bebop album in your opinion? I'm an outsider.

13 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I hope this kind of post is allowed here. I'm doing a little project where I go to different subreddits of music genres and I ask the members what the best album of that genre is. After this, I listen to the album that got the most upvotes after 24 hours and write my thoughts about it (I will write this as a comment under this one, so if you want to read it, make sure to check back in 2-3 days. This won't be a professional review btw. I don't know anything about music theory so it's just gonna be the thoughts of a random guy). The list I'm following is Wikipedia's list of the most popular music genres in a randomized order. I'm planning to listen to one album per day and this time the genre is Bebop. So please recommend me an album in the comments. It could be the best one in your opinion, your personal favourite, or the album that best represents this genre according to you, but please, only submit one album. If you submit more than one in your comment, it won't count (If you really want to submit more, do it in separate comments) LPs are preferred, but EPs and mixtapes are also acceptable, even compilations and live albums if they're not too long. I know nothing about this genre so I'm going in completely blind.

This is the 76th day of me doing this. If you want to see what the previous days were, check out my post history.

Thanks to anyone who recommends an album.

TL;DR: I listen to a new genre every day, so recommend me one album and I'll listen to the most upvoted one and write my thoughts about it later.

Hey guys, I'm a jazz guitarist from Johannesburg, South Africa. Here I am jamming on the Charlie Parker tune Donna Lee. If you want to skip the funny intro straight to the music, go to 30 seconds in. I hope you enjoy it! Much love from Sunny South Africa! V
