I Can See for Miles and Miles...

Jazz Fan

In an attempt to improve myself, I have paid close attention to the 1000 Albums You Must Listen to Before You Die,and have downloaded Miles Davis "Bitches Brew" and am currently listening to it.

Maybe listening to it is the wrong phrase to use. Maybe suffering through it would be better. I keep telling myself that jazz is supposed to be difficult to understand, and that maybe like classical music it gets easier with each listen. However, the current track "Feio" (a mere 11.50 long) features a noise like grinding teeth, no discernable tune or rhythm and a lot of random fart sounds.

Jazz Spam

Oh well, I tried. Maybe I should just accept the fact that I am designed for the simpler and less synopated things in life.  I think I'll stick to grunge, 80's bubblegum pop and the occasional 1960's girl group-fest for my musical jollies and leave the jazz to chin stroking weirdy beardies.
