I'm finding these jazz polls impossible decisions, because the jazz LP, even if it has a unifying feel or theme, seems more a document of a phase than a enclosed statement. And to pick one feels like it's diminishing others. With Duke, perhaps I can make a choice, since so many of these featured self-contained suites or collaborations that were set up to capture specific sparks. I weeded out most concerts ('cept for Newport, since it turned out to be a studio performance, and was such a statement) and tried to pare down to LPs that featured new material.
