[Dixielandjazz] Jimmy Cleveland

[Marek Boym]

OK,
So I am an idiot.  Not a sin.  Probably the reason I care to reply to
a polite person like you.  But I have ears.  And have listened to jazz
for well over 50 years.  And I don't care how great the technique of
Cleveland was - his playing did not usually sound like jazz to me
(although, if I'm not mistaken, I did mention that he was closer to
jazz than JJ).
