There were several white musicians in the group like Dennis Coffey, Joe Messia, Bob Babbitt, and Jack Brokensha.
Don’t forget the golden age of Jazz...1950-1970.
That was a pretty good summation from the pop culture point of view. I was there. Still got the stack of vinyl albums to prove it.
Dennis Coffey had left Motown when he did this.

He’s in hell because he’s likely responsible for the end of Jazz.
When everyone started playing like him, the world quit listening.
12 tone crap.
Jackie Wilson - (Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher And Higher (Best Quality)
So what’s your opinion of Ornette Coleman?
(LOL, I imagine it would be in line with Max Roach’s opinion)
It's not gone completely. Yeserday, I discovered KYNO, which broadcasts Oldies, mainly from the 60s, out of Fresno, Calif. It exudes a 60s feel, with call signs that sound like those of the era, and 60s-style newscasts featuring the sound of a teletype in the background as the announcer broadcasts news events of 2025. The 50,000-watt station can be heard through much of the San Joaquin Valley.
"Saint Of Me" Saint Paul the persecutor Was a cruel and sinful man Jesus hit him with a blinding light And then his life began I said yeah I said yeah Augustine knew temptation He loved women, wine and song And all the special pleasures Of doing something wrong I said yes I said yeah I said yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah You'll never make a saint of me Oh yeah, oh yeah You'll never make a saint of me And could you stand the torture And could you stand the pain Could you put your faith in Jesus When you're burning in the flames I said yes And I do believe in miracles And I wanna save my soul And I know that I'm a sinner I'm gonna die here in the cold I said yes, I said yeah I said yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah You'll never make a saint of me Oh yeah, oh yeah You'll never make a saint of me Oh yeah, oh yeah You'll never make a saint of me Oh yeah, oh yeah You'll never make a saint of me I thought I heard an angel cry I thought I saw a teardrop falling from his eye Come on John the Baptist was a martyr But he stirred up Herod's hate And Salome got her wish To have him served up on a plate I said yes I said yeah I said yes I said yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah You'll never make a saint of me Oh yeah, oh yeah You'll never make a saint of me Oh yeah, oh yeah You'll never make a saint of me Oh yeah, oh yeah You'll never make a saint of me I thought I heard an angel cry I thought I saw a teardrop falling from his eye I thought I saw an angel cry You'll never make a saint of me You'll never make a saint of me Never make a saint of me Never make a saint of me
I know, that was a great one. Coffey actually introduced the wah wah pedal to Wah Wah Watson. He had a few other minor hits. I think he still plays.

LOL, “That was Carl and his Wah Wah....”

“So what’s your opinion of Ornette Coleman?”
About the same as Parker.
No key.
No melody.
No set rhythm.
It’s just not music in my book.
At least Coleman threw in some strange sounds.

Missed Woodstock. Had to work that weekend.
Jet - Are You Gonna Be My Girl (Official Music Video)
The Decemberists - The Sporting Life
Daryl Hall & John Oates - Maneater (Official Video)
The Strokes - Last Nite [Also borrows from Tom Petty]
Are based on this:
The Supremes - You Can't Hurry Love
Technically, the song is written by Holland-Dozier-Holland, but I think the relevant part was created by Jimmy Jamerson and Benny Benjamin.
Dude, that’s messed up.
I missed it to. I wasn’t born.
