I am a big fan of music like chris botti, michael buble, and norah jones. I like the old jazz too but wanting some new material to listen too.

You can never listen to enough old jazz, get those records back out or find some new ones at the Goodwill.

try searching for Sitti Navarro at imeem.com.. she sings revivals but has a different voice.. she's actually under the bossa nova type of jazz..

i think its a new taste for you.. try it..

Yea. All the best jazz is from the old days, back when it was popular. Even better, since many of those musicians are dead, the royalties are minimal or non-existent. I was able to buy a Dutch-made jazz collection of 100 classics in a record store in a MALL for only 4 dollars. =) Skip the expensive new crap, look for some old classics.

What old jazz have you explored already? Maybe I can give some advice one who you should listen too. 20th Century Masters has a few Louis Armstrong, Miles Davis (I think), and other famous jazz artists' top hits on single CDs (decently priced too). Buy a few of those, they should help you find new interests. Hope I could help!
