The Editors of Gramophone’s sister music magazines, Jazzwise, Songlines and Musicals, recommend some of their favourite recordings from the past month.
Jazz Albums That Shook The World: The 1950s
Jazzwise Magazine writes, “If you are discovering jazz for the first time then you've just found the perfect place to start. And if you are a true aficionado then this list is sure to remind you of some albums that you will rush to rediscover. The 1950s saw the release of some of the greatest albums, of any genre, ever made. If you've never heard any of these albums and are wondering where to start, you could do a lot worse than by starting at the top, with Kind of Blue, and working your way down the list.”
