Charles Wride Writ:

>   NEW ORLEANS JAZZ IS THE BEST.

Of course New Orleans jazz is Good. We're pretty much all in agreement here 
. . . but - Charles asked:

>IS THERE ANY OTHER TYPE OF MUSIC?

Dixieland
two beat/four beat
Chicago Style
Frisco Style
and we're still in trad jazz forms (there's more).

And how about

Classical
Baroque
Romantic
Folk Music
Klezmer
Zydeco
Blues
Rock and Roll
Popular forms from virtually any generation
Blue Grass
Country Swing
Flamenco
Polkas
Skiffle
Marches (a la Sousa)
Grand Opera
Ragtime

Have I even scratched the surface?

Sheesh! The list goes on forever and we haven't even gotten into 
Eastern/Asian forms

So if one were to ask, as Charles did, "IS THERE ANY OTHER TYPE OF MUSIC?"

The answer is "Oh yes . . . lots"

Respectfully submitted,

Bill "I Love 'em All" Gunter
