It seems that everyone at one time needed to disprove that it was not a fully functionl and educational music that has its own langauge and can be taught and learned to many and still appeals to many not just the highly educated elite it is warm and fills the soul Jazz it the original music of America and will be here forever.

Simply brilliant! thank you so much for posting..I ve been tryin to understand the LCC for a while now...Russell's brief explanation doesn't really help...(but then again so doesnt the book itself..)but the music is beautiful and Bill Evan's performance is stunning..

Ballads maybe? There are so many Jazz artists who play ballads well. My favorite was pianist Bill Evans,(1929-1980). He played and co-write Miles "Blue In Green" mentioned by geostefos.
Happy hunting.

Might I suggest "Flamenco Sketches" by Miles gavis w/ John Coltrane, annonball Adderly and Gil Evans. One of the most beautiful tunes ever recorded
