Basisdiskothek Jazz

Die Jazz Basis Diskothek als hörbare Jazzgeschichte.

Wer sich für Jazz interessiert, wünscht sich einen soliden Grundstock an Aufnahmen für seine CD Sammlung. Der deutsche Musikjournalist, Jazzautor und Musikfotograf Ralf Dombrowski fasst in seinem Buch «Basis-Diskothek Jazz» viele der unverzichtbaren Meisterwerke der Jazz-Epoche zusammen. Es ist eine Auswahl, die sich vor allem als Vorschlag unter vielen anderen Möglichkeiten versteht.

Ich habe mir erlaubt, diese Sammlung mit persönlichen Favoriten zu ergänzen. Zudem sind einige von Dombrowski’s Vorschlägen im Handel nicht mehr erhältlich. Die neueste Ausgabe von Dombrowski’s Auswahl endet mit dem Jahr 2008. Ab 2000 habe ich entsprechende Werke aus den Welt-Bestenlisten Jazz beigefügt.
Vorschläge von Jazz CD’s die Lust machen über Jazz zu diskutieren und vor allem Jazz zu hören. Jede CD kann mittels einem Link direkt bei Amazon bestellt werden.

Viel Hörvergnügen wünscht Andi

The Jazz Basis Discotheque as audible jazz history.

Anyone interested in jazz wants a solid foundation of recordings for his CD collection. In his book “Basis-Diskothek Jazz”, the German music journalist, jazz author and music photographer Ralf Dombrowski summarises many of the indispensable masterpieces of the jazz era. It is a selection that is intended primarily as a suggestion among many other possibilities.

I have taken the liberty of supplementing this collection with personal favourites. In addition, some of Dombrowski’s suggestions are no longer commercially available. The latest edition of Dombrowski’s selection ends with the year 2008. From 2000 onwards, I have included corresponding works from the World Best Lists of Jazz.

Suggestions of jazz CDs that make you want to discuss jazz and, above all, listen to jazz. Each CD can be ordered directly from Amazon via a link.

Andi wishes you much listening pleasure
