I hate boats (get sea sick easy). My own view of music I suppose is not far from Orpheus. Much of the music both rock and jazz is stereotypical.
Great musicians and songwriters are few and it seems more so today as there is so much more garbage out there that you have to dweddle through to get to the good stuff. In the past you had to be decent just to get a record contract. Now anyone who can program a computer thinks they can make music with a total lack of musicianship. But the great ones are still there you just have to wade through more junk to get to them. Rok, you want to listen to trumpet playing check out Seven Steps to Heaven (Miles Davis, Ron Carter, A very young Tony Williams and Wayne Shorter.) I'll never know why Kind of Blue gets all the credit.
