Shame that many people don't embrace it. Or if they do, they need to make it into a "thing"...just like wearing a tie. Wear a tie, put on jazz, and forget about it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081206974005845104.post-1749000858415896322011-11-29T08:38:57.067-08:002011-11-29T08:38:57.067-08:00I'm not a smoker, but few things look cooler t...I'm not a smoker, but few things look cooler than a jazzman with a cigarette pasted to his lower lip as he drums, or plays the paino.

It's sad that a whole generation of people think it is a weird genre because it utilizes actual instruments instead of computerized nonsense.
