Frogman, that post was primarily addressed to Rok and his perceptions, which he has stated numerous times.
One's perceptions may or may not have anything to do with "facts", but they are what they are.
I didn't state anything as "fact". What you assumed that I stated as fact, was merely a heightened awareness of the music we call jazz as we listen to it.
Rok's statements and perceptions have often eluded you, just as my post eluded you.
I'm positive using Dave Brubeck's music as an example of what I was trying to get across was spot on; his music lacks "Blacknuss"; but that does not mean that on a scale from 1 to 10, some of his music does not rate a 10.
As "Aficionados" of the highest order we perceive all there is to be perceived in jazz. You jumped to your conclusion by perceiving exactly what I was trying to clarify; that the level of "blacknuss" in the music does not determine the quality of the music.
Since you always missinterpret my posts I'm not surprised that you did the same with this one, but since the post was in regard to Rok's perceptions no point in going any further until Rok responds. (notice no one else responded to that aspect of my post)
Frogman I believe your concern for my health is sincere, even though you were eluded by something intended for Rok.
