Dead Like Jazz is a rant about late, lamented twentieth-century musical forms: deceased, mostly American music that was vital--even essential--until all genres of it stopped evolving almost simultaneously in the the late 1970's and early 1980's. Rock & roll, rhythm and blues, country and blues are all represented here, but the greater emphasis is on jazz. If you read the posts, you may begin to understand why. Yep, it's all dead, but we celebrate it here daily!
