Saw Miles Davis live once, and he played the most god-awfully boring refrain over & over & over & over again. To this day, it's a PTSD moment that sadly cannot be purged!
Right right right, I have no doubt a lot of stuff, especially the Dixieland stuff, was actually originally charted that way, because for one thing "traditional" literacy wasn't very high among those musicians, "in the day".On improvisation and transcription: there are several early 20th century French compositions that are currently in the organ repertoire and get played in recitals. Turns out they are actually transcriptions of improvisations. In most cases you had an incredibly talented teacher and a similarly talented student and the former played and the later made the transcription as part of the educational process.
I don’t play or listen to jazz. I prefer music where all the musicians are playing the same song at the same time
Musta been his "Om Jazz" period.
"I didn't get around much" in the '00's...You ever hear of a fantastic San Fran combo by the name of OM Trio, back in the n00ghties? Saw em a bunch of times touring, awesome stuff.
Then it's Bluegrass.Like I said, I love listening to jazz, I just don't want to learn all those odd chords. I'm guessing I may be able to improvise with some lead stuff, guitar or mandolin, although I haven't heard much jazz mandolin LOL.
There's a mandolin in there!Aw, Al, you ruined it with the banjo stuff!
And yet it can cut both ways.I would say it has clearly expanded my musical horizons to listen to and occasionally play jazz stuff on guitar.

People stopped respecting John and Yoko after that record they did with Ornette Coleman.

Until Hendrix, Strats were considered second-rate guitars. He single-handedly turned them into a go-to rock and blues guitar.
He was known to use both hands sometimes, and even his teeth

People want what's familiar, and they want what their heroes have (aside from talent). So that's where the market goes. . . .
And That's exactly why Shure Sm57 & SM58 are still considered as quality mics instead of semi-decent doorstops :triumphant:
