[TAIPAN22001]

Not everyone is a fan of classical music (like myself) and I pity them, but I too dislike most jazz, which, as someone (not me)has said is "a form of musical masturbation". Most of it sounds like noodling and aimless riffing, whereas some practioners of it such as John Coltrane and Miles Davis have made some impressive music. That much said however, most jazz is far superior to (c)rap, "R&B" and most of the "musical" garbage that infests the world nowadays.

[Age of Reason]

I consider jazz as one of those art styles celebrated by disturbed, depressed, nihilistic listeners.

And you are correct that rap is even further down on the scale of depravity.

[Age of Reason]

And liberal intellectuals (is there any other kind?) seem to love jazz.
