A kind of jazz. Last January, NPR asked listeners to name the 100 greatest jazz songs ever. The results have been published on the website Jazz24.org, where you can find the list, along with Grooveshark and YouTube links. Now, courtesy of an unusual rainy tuesday night desire for jazz, here you have the Spotify playlist, too. Enjoy!
But before enjoying, a little extra Top 10 for the lovers of stats:
1. Miles Davis (9 songs featured in the playlist, including the complete Kind of Blue album)
2. Duke Ellington (8 songs, including one with John Coltrane)
3. John Coltrane (8 songs, including one with Duke Ellington and one with Johnny Hartman)
4. Louis Armstrong (6 songs)
4. Thelonious Monk (6 songs)
6. Billie Holiday (4 songs)
6. Charlie Parker (4 songs)
8. Dizzy Gillespie (3 songs)
8. Ella Fitzgerald (3 songs)
8. Herbie Hancock (3 songs)
Somehow underrated: Bill Evans, Charles Mingus, Chet Baker, Django Reinhardt (just one song each)
Completely forgotten: Keith Jarrett (no songs)
... but probably you'll find many other under or overestimations, according to your taste. :o)
