Trouble is Marek, that it seems to me  you also "disdain other people's 
ears". You and I for example have OKOM tastes that overlap but YKOM and 
MKOM aren't the same; we could discuss style for ever but calling people 
to account for mentioning music that you consider unworthy isn't in the 
spirit of this friendly and international list. Untalented players can 
be found in all jazz fields but associating Miles Davis, (at least in 
his early days) and Dave Brubeck with "chaff" leaves me bereft of 
speech; which is probably just as well :-)
