Jazz from 1957 to 1967 was the most definitive.


I believe that after that decade, the term "Jazz" lost it's definition. I also believe this decade produced the very best Jazz ever. I would like to limit the discussion to this decade in Jazz, or related Jazz.
My system consists of Rega, Marantz cd, Audible Illusions, Primaluna 6, and custom speakers.

Foster and I suspect Orpheus 10 as well. Look carefully at Aldavis' sentence. It ends with a question mark. :-) So does the dispute I think.
Aldavis, then we are in agrrement. Back to your statement correcting someone about Bird and Hard Bop. Who were you referring to?
Jazz struggled with rock taking over in the 1960s. Then jazz tried to compete with rock and we got jazz fusion, but there was still alot of great jazz.

Hopefully the current jazz resurgence will last.
Aldavis, I just saw Orpheus10's statement about Bird.

Orpheus10 what did you think of the the Horace Silver clip?
