Friends of mine tell me that I'm one of the more astute listeners regarding music. I do really take it seriously and have since I was a child. This podcast stems from a conversation with my good friend Nina Brown-Lane. She's just beginning to nibble around the edges of our great Black American art form known, for better or worse, as Jazz. Jazz to some artists has become a label with negative connotations, and the term can be the source of some very heated arguments. Notedly from the great musician, trumpeter - Nicholas Payton. Agree? Disagree? The jury is out. Whatever we decide to call it in the future is fine with me, I'll never stop listening!
