Thanks, Diana, for posting that article. It kinda cemented the fact that
Wynton Marsalis' heavy-handedness in the documentary was responsible for the
apparent "burning out" of jazz in the latter part of the century. This is
not the first time that Marsalis has proven himself as the enemy of jazz
advancement. (See his involvement in the Lincoln Center) Preservation is
one thing Abortion is another. (in the musical sense, for those who may
take things a bit too literally.)
Ken
