the trane record placement is prob the craziest to me still
― D-40, Sunday, 28 August 2011 01:55 (twelve years ago) link
and thrust and wes ...
you should see what missed out
― Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Sunday, 28 August 2011 02:01 (twelve years ago) link
a) were you expecting ppl to vote for 20 trane albums
b) the whole premise of this poll is insane, though props to kerr for trying; it is too huge and precious few voters (eg me) have heard enough of these enough times to constructively vote
c) very looking forward to checking out some new stuff, but i don't think bitching about the rankings is gonna get us anywhere
d) sorry i hate jazz guitar (should try again) so wes/grant's placements are partially my fault

If you haven't heard Sharrock's Guitar, let me recommend it with his quote in mind: "I consider myself a saxophonist with a very fucked-up axe."

Ha. Just put that on. I also like the regular, boring jazz guitar that mookieproof and hurting hate, but otherwise mookieproof otm.
― Don't ask for the steening, ask for the HOOS (James Redd and the Blecchs), Sunday, 28 August 2011 02:17 (twelve years ago) link
tbf to deej he's not bitching, he knows what polls are like. but i dont blame him for being baffled at the low placement of the trane album. but it's an ILM poll, you know these things happen!
Also i think 1 or 2 did vote for (nearly) all the miles or trane albums.

Anyone want to predict the top 10/20? Then we can compare the guesses when the poll is done and see who was closest.
― Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Sunday, 28 August 2011 02:40 (twelve years ago) link
As somebody already said, Kind of Blue is a strong favorite for number one
― Don't ask for the steening, ask for the HOOS (James Redd and the Blecchs), Sunday, 28 August 2011 02:46 (twelve years ago) link
In the top 10 (or at least top 20): Love Supreme, Kind of Blue, Silent Way, Black Saint, Evans @ Village Vanguard, Brilliant Corners, Shape of Jazz to Come, Out to Lunch. Maybe Spiritual Unity? Anyway, I expect like most polls it'll get less interesting near the top. Already d/l'd that Clifford Brown from emusic, I can tell this list is going to give me a lot to dig into.
