But I don't like Jazz....

I have come across alot of folks who for one reason or another react to Jazz a bit like Marmite. Some do really cry and vomit, others reckon that there couldn't possibly be a form of Jazz that they liked. They usually then go on to almost refer to it in a fashion that hints the only Jazz they had experienced was John Thompson's Jazz Club sketch on the Fast Show..

Well I'm now on a mission to convert people to my ideology. If you like Blues, Rock, Rockabilly, Funk, R and B even Country- There will be some Jazz you like!!.

First up Calvin Newborn. To achieve what this guy has done most people would have to be reincarnated 5 fucking times!. Just a brief overview- An early influence on Elvis's dancing style, Blues sideman to the likes of Walter Horton, whilst also playing with his JAZZ pianist brother Phineas Newborn, he has starred in plays and written books. He has also backed the likes of Jazz saxophonist Jimmy Forrest. He plays Jazz with a heavy mix of blues or is it the other way round ????.

No vomiting please
