<<HI Hans. Im sorry to tell you that the remarkable thing about Ken Burns
Jazz Series is the very distorted history of jazz that Burns presents. This
series is loaded with distortions about Jazz and their are very serious
omissions. >>
Hans,
Now you must be really confused!!! Watch - enjoy the bits you like and then
make up your own mind!
Incidently both versions of the series have been shown on TV in the UK but
only a strangely edited version on the terrestial channel.
