Jazz is the DJ soundtrack by definition... its all about freedom, chilling out, and having no fear. We got any jazz fans up in here?
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Yeah, I enjoy Jazz.
Nothing better than turning on the moodlights, grabbing a bottle of wine, and turning on some jazz. Smoooth baby.

The greatest jazz album of all time, and the most timeless, is Miles Davis' Kind of Blue.
Man, if you can't hookup to Flamenco sketches you seriously need some help.
'Round about midnight and The birth of the cool are very close seconds.
If Coltrane is more your flavor go with A Love Supreme.
Jazz is absolutely the reinvention of music over and over again. It capsulates everything a man should become and stand for. Smoothness, sensuality, a lust for living and just being cool all the way around.

Never paid much attention to it until a few months back my wife put on one of her Miles Davis CD's and I was blown away as to how good that was.

Yea karmasutra hit it on the head. Those are all the main classics. But be sure to check out Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, and if you're really into the older flavors, Count Basie. There are also a lot of modern jazz cats doing there thing days who aren't half bad.
I'm gonna go listen to some jazz right now as a matter of fact.

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Filles De Kilimanjaro is my fav so far...
Charlie Parker & Miles/ Timeless is fab.
I saw Count Basie sometime in the late 70's ish. I was pretty young - but knew enough to realize I was experiencing something worthwhile.
Coltrane challenges me.

Ohhhh, but I really don't care for newage jazz. It's okay in small, spaced out doeses. But other than that it makes me feel....not good(?).

smooth jazz... not sunday morning jazz.
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Jazz guitarists are probably the most talented out of all the music groups (yes better than metal shredders). My guitar instructer had me listen to his instructer whos a jazz guitarist, and I don't even know how playing like that is possible. It was unreal the different rhythm and speed he had going.

Ah, so glad the conversation turned to jazz guitar. I play jazz guitar and love everything about it. Its such a cool sound, and the best players are definitely among the most talented guitarists/musicians ever (not that I'm biased or anything, hehe).
One of my favorite players is a guy named Kurt Rosenwinkel. He plays in a really modern style but his improvising is amazing. http://www.amazon.com/Next-Step-Kur...bs_sr_3?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1206257143&sr=8-3 is my favorite album.
For more straight ahead style jazz guitar, definitely listen to Joe Pass. He's most known for solo arrangements that will make you **** yourself if you aren't prepared. http://www.amazon.com/Virtuoso-Bit-...=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1206257887&sr=1-1
Also, I recommend the Dave Holland Big Band to everyone. Its a big band with a really modern (not "painful" modern though, the good kind of modern) sound. It's even got a lot of fusion influences too but it has the instrumentation of a standard big band (except rhythm section, which is only bass drums and vibes). Plus its got my favorite jazz trombone player of all time (Robin Eubanks).

I love how you put that Karma. Jazz is really cool but it gets a bad rap, especially among younger folks, for seemingly no reason at all. It's a damn shame. I always listen to jazz to get me pumped up before a party and listen to slower jazz when I need to chill out. More people should listen to it IMO.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Brother, Kurt Rosenwinkel is off the chain! Deep Song is one of the best post-bop jazz albums in the last 20 years.
I too don't have any idea why people are so afraid of jazz? When I sit with a good cigar from my humidor, a glass of Old Granddad and good jazz on the Zen, kickin' it by the pool; man, talk about living in the moment!
Serenity now, serenity now.
