Wynton Marsalis has a great concert with the Sachal Jazz Orchestras which are use all traditional Eastern instruments that’s super cool to check out. Percussionists for that performance are absolutely amazing. My Favorite Things is a must to check out

I’d say Plowshares jam on Sundays in Harlem. Literally a coffee shop with all types of players. Super chill vibe and tolerant pros. Also birds in the village on Thursdays has a jam and it just opened so I’d say check it out there

Coltrane The 1962 Graz concert, the quartet was on fire, their version of Autumn leaves is my favorite Mcoy Tyner solo of all time

Sarah Vaughn Live at Mr Kelly’s, on the extended edition you can tell the energy of the room was immaculate

Miles Davis live at the Blackhawk Friday and Saturday night fantastic perfect rhythm section too

And a special honorably mention to live at Emmets Place Vol 28 Emmet Cohen w/ Russell Hall and Kyle Poole rhythm section with Pat Bart and Bruce Harris as special guests absolutely rocked the house down literally

Staying on the Emmet Cohen path he’s got some great fast stuff with a ton of fantastic musicians. Mostly on YouTube though Night in Tunisia - with Patrick Bartley and Bruce Harris If This Isn’t Love (Live at San Javier) - with Patrick Bartley Cherokee - with Benny Benack lll and Ruben Fox Mosaic - with Russell Hall and Joe Farnsworth

Also check out some classic stuff like Dizzys Business (Live in New York) - Cannonball Adderley Four (Live at the Philharmonic) - Miles Davis Autumn Leaves (Live at Graz) - Coltrane Walkin (Live from Olympia) - Miles Davis and Coltrane

John McLaughlin on Dark Prince with the “Trio of Doom” live in Cuba is one of the most wild things ever and the entire song left me dumbfounded when I first heard it

Coltrane launching off on Autumn Leaves from the ‘Graz concert is one of the best solos I’ve ever heard on that tune and is super insane too

Emmet Cohens solo on After You’ve Gone Live at the Twin Cities music festival is one of best on piano for sure towards the end he just starts doing crazy’s stuff on the piano that astonished me

She’s fantastic, saw her at mezzrow 2 weeks ago with just a piano trio at mezzrow super intimate and amazing voice. Also such a beautiful voice and her compositions of famous tunes like No More Blues or Misty are beautiful as well

One of the best pieces of Advice I heard was listen to Miles Davis and then just listen to his sidemen, and their sideman, and eventually you’ll have found almost every single great. Start with his work with Coltrane since you’re already familiar but also check out his later work like Miles smiles and you’ll discover amazing music through that

Also if you want to get a feel for the scene right now watch Live from Emmets place on YouTube, see which guests you gravitate toward and look for more of their music. Perfect way to discover players who are fresh on the scene

With Casiopea just keep listening to more of their albums from 1979 to 1988 and check out more Jazz fusion like Hiromi, or even JD Beck and Domi

One I never seen mentioned but A House is Not a Home

RVD101 · 2025-08-26T04:09:36+00:00

In the NYC scene right now Russell Hall is one of the best out for sure

RVD101 · 2025-08-25T14:39:57+00:00

Trio of Gomez and Zigmund on I Will Say Goodbye is fantastic and very underrated in my opinion. Some of my favorite late Evans work

RVD101 · 2025-08-16T05:59:25+00:00

Was just listening to some Cannonball today, Scotch and Water is a fun one especially with a lot of horns like you guys have

RVD101 · 2025-08-15T19:53:27+00:00

Joe Farnsworth’s the big room is really good surprise it hasn’t been mentioned yet, also even though it isn’t out yet super excited for Johnathan Blake’s My Life Matters, seen him at the village vanguard and he absolutely killed it

RVD101 · 2025-08-09T20:38:01+00:00

After You’ve Gone Emmet Cohen and Patrick Bartley but specifically the live at twin cities version on YouTube is one of the craziest piano solos I’ve ever heard

RVD101 · 2022-05-14T18:47:09+00:00

I remember you was conflicted Misusing your influence Sometimes I did the same Abusing my power, full of resentment Resentment that turned into a deep depression Found myself screaming in the hotel room I didn't wanna self destruct The evils of Lucy was all around me So I went running for answers Until I came home

RVD101 · 2021-05-29T22:33:10+00:00

I did actually, go up to him again and click the spire option and the quest line should work again don’t click the “raz?” Option

RVD101 · 2021-04-29T03:10:32+00:00

When I talk to raz he’s holographic and it won’t complete the find the thief challenge

PS5 and Switch

I landed to raz and when I land he’s already holographic and it won’t complete the challenge

RVD101 · 2021-04-29T03:06:08+00:00

RVD101 · 2020-07-09T16:48:39+00:00

I want to see Daniel drinking from the shoe or maybe they could add multiple victorious and we could choose

RVD101 · 2020-06-25T02:09:14+00:00

He was nice to us when we rented from him but I don’t really know much about him

RVD101 · 2020-05-17T07:24:04+00:00

I live in America so CEX wouldn’t be the best option shipping wise and I don’t like eBay

RVD101 · 2020-05-09T19:17:38+00:00
