So is all criticism "bs".......?
OK we all love jazz, and many of us played it for a living. And of course guys like Miles and Micheal Brecker had high profiles in the jazz world. And I hope it goes without saying that we support fellow musicians who give so much artistic pleasure and lead a somewhat "different" life from many others. So there's no lack of respect, and nor should there be.
But Jeez, can't we use this forum to simply voice subjective opinions on what we find boring and rewarding in jazz, as we would in anything else in our lives?
