The Best Musicians Are Not The Best

My First Relationship To Any Kind Of Musical Situation Is As A Listener.

It's A Shame That Jazz Is Now Being Turned Into Dried Fruit. It's Becoming Quantized, Diced And Defined. It's Becoming An Idiom. To Me If It's Anything, Jazz Is A Verb ? It's More Like A Process Than It Is A Thing.

People Sometimes Say It Takes A Long Time To Become A Jazz Fan, But For Me It Took About Five Seconds.

More And More As Time Has Gone On, I Realize That Playing Is Really More About Listening Than It Is About Playing.

Jazz Music Will Continue To Thrive, Possibly In Unexpected Ways.
