    I think Jazz is a greatly misunderstood term. I think it's really a blanket term for any music that exists outside the mainstream and that has improvisational elements.

    I mean it covers so many styles. Be-bop, swing, rhythm & blues, fusion, jazz funk, afro cuban, samba, free form, trad, big band, and jump jive are all termed as jazz but are very different from each other.

    I don't like trad or free form but i like 'jazz.'
