ghost of miles Posted November 9, 2004 Report Posted November 9, 2004 Someone wanted to call attention to my pointy ears. But is that a question--stupid or not? Quote

.:.impossible Posted January 27, 2007 Report Posted January 27, 2007 Please, let's not start this again. Glad I don't remember this. I scanned about six pages before I realized what I was doing. Wasting my time. If there was ever a thread to be deleted, this seems like the head runner. Quote
JSngry Posted January 27, 2007 Author Report Posted January 27, 2007 Actually, it was started with the best of itnentions - to provide a forum to ask those "basic" questions that a lot of jazz neophytes (and not so neophyte) might otherwise be too embarassed to ask for fear of being smacked down with the "DUH, you don't know that? Everybody knows that." thing. There had just been an instance or two of people acting ashamed/embarassed to ask what they called a "stupid question", and I thought that was too bad. Hell, if you don't know someting, ask! The only stupid questions are the ones not asked (or not thought through before asking). Immediately, the thread deteriorated beyond redemption. I'll not delete it, leaving it to stand as a testament to whatever it's a testament to. Quote
.:.impossible Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 No, no. I can tell it was started on the best of intentions. It would have been a good thread, I'm sure. I have a serious question. When did higher learning institutions began teaching jazz. Where was the first jazz department formed? I won't ask why, because I have a feeling it is more complex than that. Quote

catesta Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 Immediately, the thread deteriorated beyond redemption. I'll not delete it, leaving it to stand as a testament to whatever it's a testament to. There is actually some funny stuff back there, and posts by some people that are either no longer around or do not post much anymore. I give it a , even if it never went the intended direction. Quote

Hot Ptah Posted July 16, 2007 Report Posted July 16, 2007 No, no. I can tell it was started on the best of intentions. It would have been a good thread, I'm sure. I have a serious question. When did higher learning institutions began teaching jazz. Where was the first jazz department formed? I won't ask why, because I have a feeling it is more complex than that. I have a book which is a collection of jazz essays written in the 1970s. I can't remember who wrote it, but it is one of the famous jazz writers. I will try to find it--I have it at home. In this book, the famous jazz writer specifically writes about this topic. He says that as the 1970s progress, he can literally see and feel jazz slipping away from being a music played by a community of musicians in New York clubs, to a music becoming institutionalized in many university music departments, with the musicians of the New York community drifting away to take these salaried university positions all over the U.S. His take on it was that it was too bad, that something was being lost, more and more each year as the 1970s progress.

Niko Posted July 19, 2007 Report Posted July 19, 2007 I don't REALLY understand, why Frank Strozier stopped playing alto because he couldn't find any reeds; but if we take this as given - why didn't he just concentrate on his great flute playing? Quote
Shawn Posted July 19, 2007 Report Posted July 19, 2007 How do I teach a 12 week old kitten to use her litter box? Lead by example? You don't have to train cats, just show her where it is, plop her down in it...she'll take care of the rest. That's why cats are so awesome...LOW MAINTENANCE! Quote
