There are many, many living jazz talents. There maybe more talented musicians than talented listeners to pay attention to them, and there in lies the problem. Here's a perceptive article (although I don't buy the New York centric aspect, but hey, it's the Village Voice. I think the major advantage of New York (the potential advantage of "exposure,") now translates at best the opportunity for well paying sideman gigs with older pop stars. Nothing to sneeze at, but not he jazz scene of olden days. High rent really kills a scene . . . )
