Do we need a neo avant-garde jazz movement?

I think that's a great idea and one that should be embraced fully. Over the last year this forum has basically become a sort of paradise for neo-soul guitar enjoyers. Just look at the recent thread of clip entries. Beautiful tone and licks throughout, featuring some of the nicest guitars south of PRS private reserves you will find anywhere among the guitar forums. It just goes to show you that Rig Talk is more than just EVH tone and chugga chugga. Tan pants and Carlos ™️ by Carlos Santana boots are for everyone.
 
Sure but only if I can submit a neo avant- guard bowel movement as my entry
make sure and wear one of those newsboy hats and a jacket with elbow patches, and use big words incorrectly, loudly, and pretentiously so everyone knows they are avant garde neo jazz diarrhea squirts and not the mainstream pop-jazz diarrhea squirts

If you saw what passes for avant garde jazz nowadays you'd be begging for some PRS private reserve lawyer blues bands. Unbelievably bad. Like two five year olds with a drumset and a trumpet, lol. Makes Eric Dolphy seem like a pocket player, LOL.

On the other hand is Sonny Sharrock. Ask the Ages is one of my all time favorite albums, period. Les Paul+Marshall with an all star jazz lineup. According to his daughter that album was his dream. Elvin Jones, Pharoah Sanders, Charnett Moffett and produced by Bill Laswell. Completely unique IMO without being so outside as to qualify as noise. Melodic but free...
 
@BeZo victimized again… I’m sorry brother. 🤣 You’ll have your moment lmao. I love all genres, & have a special place for neo-soul as well.. I’ll get down with Robert Johnson, John Lee, B.B, CCR, SRV, Jimi, Clapton, Sabbath, Marley, Deaf Leppard, Metallica, MJ, Marvin Gaye, The Fugees, Temptations, Supremes, Diana Ross, Nirvana, Alice, Koяn, Disturbed, AILD, Parkway Drive, Suicide Silence, Cannibal Corpse, All Shall Perish, Kendrick, Nipsey, list goes on & on but if you don’t know about India Arie, Lauren Hill, Musiq Soulchild, Maxwell, D’Angelo, Erykah freakin Badu, Anthony Fuckin Hamilton or most of the above…. Y’all need to quit being so Vanilla & Chocolate. I’m a Heinz 57 so maybe it all hits different 😂 :doh:Back to my Friday night drank 🍻

Sometimes, you have to be the change you want to see in the world.

@BeZo is definitely underrepresented, & I’m quite frankly offended for my fortune cookie friend.
