100 belangrijke Jazz opnames

Thursday, December 21, 2017 by Sjaak Lammers | jazz opnames

Ik heb een lijstje gekregen van een leerling met belangrijke jazz albums. Zo'n lijst is natuurlijk erg moeilijk te bepalen, maar ik heb er even snel gekeken en zag wel wat belangrijke platen voorbij komen. Misschien een leuk begin om een spotify lijstje aan te maken in de kerst vakantie:
