I guess you guys are afraid to post here because:
you have no taste in music and have no clue what those songs are
or you're being selfish . I myself have found most of the songs on rhapsody, but a few are still out of reach.

I looked on some sites, but didn't come up with much. I did not look on rhapsody though.

You might as well just download it from someplace.

You'd find most everything using a program like Limewire Pro or something.

Can't find anything, sorry. Can probably easily find them on

well thanks for the effort guys, my band director wants us to listen to the songs since we're....."too white for jazz"
I really like the song "Blue ronda a la turk" because of the 9/8 and 12/8 time (the 9/8 is either counted 1-2 3-4 5-6 7-8-9 or 1-2-3 4-5-6 7-8-9...oh how I love alternation
and yeah cheat I may have to do that. Bittorrent's really got nothing on any of these songs :\

And if you don't know who Maynard Ferguson is...you better start listen to his stuff. This man was the Boss of jazz... If anything your trumpets should know who he is.

On one of his tours he stopped into my town and held a concert at our high school with one of his bands...And it was by far to this day, the best concert I have ever been to. I just wish he was still alive today.

If you need any others feel free to let me know, I can hook ya up.

actually I may a mistake. I put critical mass up there twice. The missing song is Gospel John (by you know who ). Damn man you're lucky, lol I can't top that. what I can say is that my granpda almost hit William Faulker. Drunk Bastard *shakes fist*

Songs I've played by him - Coconut champagne, Gospel John, and of course Birdland

What you think about funk and new orleans jazz? Tower of Power, James Brown, Jaco Pastorius, dr John, The Neville Brothers etcetera.

Some good jazz imo is: Dave weckl, Miles Davis, John Scofield, Ben Webster and all those guys.

Some great funk/jazz/blues songs are imo: Chameleon, The chicken, Minor Funky Blues, Goodnight Irene, I heard it through the grapevine

What ya think about those?

But heck yeah, some cool jazz can be a hell to find, hope you'll find it mate

If you still need the songs send me a message on msn or skype. I should be able to get them all now.
