[Dixielandjazz] Who invented Jazz?

[Martin Nichols]

Steve Barbone wrote:
"Actually the Italians invented jazz centuries before Buddy 
Bolden. It began
with a secret society, composed of Botticelli, Da Vinci, 
Victor Hugo, Isaac
Newton, Guiseppe Verdi and Don Corleone. The were judging a 
musical contest
called "Italiano Idolatry" wherein Jazza Bands from all 
over Italy came to
compete at the ruins of the Roman Amphitheater in Palermo. 
Circa 1789."...<snip>...
 
I read "The Da Vinci Code''too Steve . As I read your "version"I obediently supplied the "nods" where needed {just like Robert, the hero}. No "Sophie" here to see them though, darn it!
