How do I get into jazz?
I've tried listening to a handful of albums but they don't click with me. Unless Zappa counts.
How do I get into jazz?
mmmm wet pussy
fela kuti - zombi. Also learn music theory, jazz fans say it helps

Brubeck - Time Out, Coltrane - Giant Steps. And Zappa doesn't count, but it doesn't matter.

Who do I listen to for that cuphead sound? I've tried a couple popular recommendations but they didn't have that combination of fast, aggressive, and catchy that I was looking for. An example would be something like one of these

John Coltrane's Olé is what made jazz click for me.
I'm not OP but thanks! Do these guys have any instrumental songs though? Also a lot of big band that I hear is too upbeat sounding for my taste
Start with White People Jazz

Why not begin your journey with the oldest jazz band to have existing recorded material? The Original Dixieland Jazz Band, they're called. It's bumpy old school N'Orlins jazz (pre big band) and it's the best place to start because it's the original jazz sound.
That’s a great suggestion
There’s plenty of Instrumental stuff, just dig into an artist an you’ll find something you like. Big band jazz had a lot of vocals though, yeah. This was the pop music of the time
