Thanks for your response, Penny. The book sounded pretty specific for "jazz" 
being a color, as in 'a jazz colored dress.' I couldn't imagine what that would 
be.

Patty,

I haven't heard of a specific color called jazz before but in New Orleans the 
Mardi Gras color are used with the jazz funerals.  The Mardi Gras colors are 
gold (or bright yellow), purple and green.  These colors are used frequently 
with Dixieland or New Orleans style jazz music.
