Home Jazz Alley

From Louis Armstrong to Charlie Parker to the new greats of today, this is the place for Jazz!

RE: Goodbye Pork Pie Hat

Jazz is improvised and felt in the moment. It's not charts or learned licks. If it's played the same way every night but with a "jazz sound", then it's not jazz. Jazz is playing/singing the notes for the story, not for the sound effects. Good jazz musicians make you feel they're feeling every note, even if they're just waiting to finish the set.

I appreciate Jeff Beck's talent, but it's improvised rock, not jazz.

Just my opinion.
