Most of this is cool. Kinda wish people would reserve tagging things as cool jazz only for actual cool jazz.

2009 marks the 50th Anniversary of the original release date of Miles Davis’ Kind Of Blue. Legendary jazz drummer, Jimmy Cobb (the only surviving member from the original recording) leads a contemporary all-star band featuring Wallace Roney (trumpet), Javon Jackson (tenor saxophone), Vincent Herring (alto saxophone), Larry Willis (piano), and Buster Williams (bass.) The group will perform their interpretations of Kind of Blue’s five masterpieces: “So What”, “Freddie Freeloader”, “Blue In Green”, “All Blues”, and “Flamenco Sketches” plus other classics by Davis, John Coltrane, Julian “Cannonball” Adderley, and original compositions inspired by this era.

hui hui may I pragmatically agree with both of you? or maybe suggest "cool jazz" for that particular genré, and "cool" and "jazz" for just anything else that feels somehow jazzy and cool ...

what a pity, people don't know what COOL JAZZ means because they tag it all over the place if a tune sounds "cool" and "jazzy".
