"But saying you don’t like jazz, is akin to stating you don’t understand jazz"
If that is directed at me, then I resemble the remark! I like some jazz, I don't like some. I know so little about jazz, I cannot name the sub-genres. This thread is helping!
Now if it were about classical, I'd be on home ground. But even there, I dislike more than I like. My desert island disks would be late-romantic large-scale orchestral with a dash of opera and piano! No lute music or harpsicord, which Beecham described as sounding like two skeletons copulating on a tin roof.
