Jazz

Jazz is an American musical art form which originated around the beginning of the 20th century in Black communities in the Southern United States from a confluence of African and European music traditions. The style’s West African pedigree is evident in its use of blue notes, call-and-response, improvisation, polyrhythms, syncopation, and the swung note of ragtime.

Hahah, oh Amy Winehouse! I was just wondering if any of you ordered the new Preservation Hall benefit album? I was just looking at Amazon, and it seems like a great jazz comp! http://www.amazon.com/Preservation-Album-Benefit-Outreach-Program/dp/B003019LVK/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1264438260&sr=8-2-catcorr

Amy Winehouse is a great jazz musician, on par with Kenny G.

Finally, Ms Winehouse is out of the top 8 artists. Nice respectable line-up there. :)

I am currently interested in Jazz. Sort of new. I've heard Wes Montgomery's band and I was quite intrigued. I don't like those Jazz trumpet bands. They bore me. Anybody know some good Fusion or Wes Montgomery trio styled bands?
