You guys are idiots who just like to argue about shit that doesn't matter. Everyone is a person not a color, just enjoy the music.

Clark Terry: "A note don't care who blows it, no matter if you're white, black, purple or opaque." Grow up, guys.

I love Tyner's style . . . good example of his style around 1:48 to 2:40. Pure bliss. Thanks for posting this.

Bullshit. You know where Wayne Shorter and the likes were getting their crazy harmonic ideas? They got it from listening to modern classical like Stravinsky. Never mind Tal Farlow, Joe Venuti, Django Reindhardt, Stephane Grappelli, Jelly Roll Morton, Benny Goodman, Buddy Rich, Gene Krupa, Dave Brubeck, Steve Gadd, Chick Corea, Keith Jarrett, Joe Pass, Lenny Breau, and the list goes on but I'm getting bored.

there may equal contributors in instruments but really in nothing else. The style of jazz music was developed over time by guys like Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, John Coltrane Cannonball herbie hancock Wayne Shorter, all of those guys being black. There are a few white guys who contributed to the growth of jazz like bill evans and joe zawinul. But the impact is not as big as from the black players

He's fast. That's about all I can say in favour, I'm unimpressed with the music of this. Mr. PC is a nice enough track, somewhat butchered by the 'speed jazz' element here.

"To not no anything about african intruments and to claim that musical element of jazz came from europe is a way for whites to steal jazz as their music" No, it's simply stating a fact. Jazz harmony comes straight from European music (French impressionism in particular was a great influence), as do many of the instruments used (piano above all). Nobody is claiming that Jazz is an European art but it does have a strong connection with the latter.

Maybe, and it's a big maybe, the blues was mostly African, but Jazz wasn't. Jazz I can't pinpoint one culture having a larger influence. Most of the rhythms actually came from Latin America more than Africa. Traditional African music sounds nothing like jazz, and in all honesty the one form of music that sounds closest to jazz on it's own is the late romantic period that was comming out of Europe.
