I go with the first and third answer. Kind Of Blue is considered the best jazz album of all time. It features many legends: John Coltrane, Bill Evans, Cannonball Adderley, and of course Miles. Several, if not all, of these songs are jazz standards.
Charlie Parker and John Coltrane (both sax players) are about the top two jazzmen of all time, but then theres Billie Holliday, Louie Armstrong, Duke Ellington, and Miles Davis too. These are definitely the top 6 jazzmen of all time. Parker and Coltrane are my favorites though.
My favorite modern player is Larry Carlton.
