I'm curious to know how one would go about rating a jazz standard.What would be the criteria?What would put" Body and Soul" at the top?
I suppose you could start with..complexity,subtlety.....

They could probably also be rated by how many different performers have performed them.
One of my favorites is "It's only a Paper Moon."

Horace, Kenny Dorham and Hank Mobley, They name their group as Jazz Messenger, after a year Horace left the group. Their group played hard-bop jazz; it was the start of blues music. Havana Jazz Festival |
