[ Jazz is an acquired taste ]
I love Jazz/Blues BUT its not the King of Music.. its just not..
Its not even the Transvestite of Music.. too hairy..
Only an uneducated moron would call JAzz the King of Music..
Much music on this planet, Jazz is just a temporal riff..
Jazz has some good chops but it is still temporal.. and a side issue..
I even listen to a bit of RAP, its like a Chimp smoking a cigarette wearing a hat.. quite funny..
Brazilian Jazz is becoming quite good.. American Jazz sometimes sounds like they are tuning their instruments.. and after listening you know they often havn’t..
Diana Krall is big right now.. Although quite beautiful her playing is marginal mostly.. Not bad, just marginal..
I listen to some jazz, and love live jazz, but for many decades, once I realized that the pretentious and liberals fall all over themselves praising jazz, I have been making casual note of how many houses I enter, are playing Jazz, and since I have been working in jobs that take me into homes for almost my entire life, I have a lot of experience entering stranger’s homes, decades of it on the good old, liberal, wealthy, Southern California coast.
My experience is that people praise jazz, they just don’t listen to it. I don’t think that I have ever gone into a home where they were listening to jazz while alone and during the day.
