" but most of the interesting music is coming from Europe. Americans are too stupid to appreciate good music"

Sure some good music is coming from Europe but a lot is not real jazz,
especially the like of Solveig Slettahjell, Susanne Abbuehl.
Even if you like them, these 2 ladies have a very small following even in Europe, they are pleasant but insignificant and certainly not bringing jazz forward.
How can we even compare them to the like of Sheila Jordan, Nancy king,
Karrin Allyson or Jay Clayton and many others. One must just surf "CD Baby" listen and discover some great talents.
I have over 200 different jazz singers in my collection, maybe 20% are from Europe.
Maybe I am a purist be we where talking about jazz, did we not.???
