I'm always interested in getting into new kind of stuff I haven't been really listening to before. But, even though I do like my prog-rock (sometimes bordering on fusion), I've never been really able to get into Jazz.
@txa: Could you give me a few recommendations, just of the top of your head, on some modern (post 2k) Jazz that might help me (or anyone, for that matter) to start getting into Jazz? I know there are dozens of sub-genres and styles and so on.. but… any help greatly appreciated
