This rule even seemed to hold for the other employees of the classical record store where I worked, who were mostly classical instrumentalists -- the ones who liked opera tended to be uninterested in instrumental jazz, and vice versa.
I wonder why that is?
They feel threatened by what they don't understand?
Nahhh. It's just the anchovies factor. I detest anchovies, but that doesn't mean they aren't good, or that I don't understand them. I've told the story before about one of my sonss who, turning his nose up at my steamed carrots with dill (lovely), said "These are yuckky". No, I told him, they are perfectly acceptable carrots. You are allowed to say you don't like them, but it's wrong to say they are yuckky.
I've heard a LOT of jazz, and occasionally it speaks to me. But in general, it's mostly anchovies to me. I just don't really like it. But I ain't sayin' it's yuckky.
