[Dixielandjazz] Drum solos

[macjazz]

Drum solos reduce listening to RHYTHM. One of the basic elements of music. 
(Melody, Harmony, Form and Timbre are the others, by the way.)

The interesting thing is that "popular" music has also taken the step of 
reducing things to the single element.  Rap is also a rhythm phenomena.
