“Where’s the jazz?”
You are free to boycott this, for its lack of purity.
However one man’s jazz might be another man’s pop, or Blues, or R&B, or rock.
Van Morrison spans a wide range of musical classifications.
He will tell you his influences include American blues, jazz, country, etc.
I think Simon showed on the Graceland album his range in styles.
I love Van Morrison. One of the all time greats. Simon & Gar, I can take or leave.
