<div class="">OK, I listen only to trad - "It ain't nobody's business if
I do." It is perfectly all right for you to listen to
so-called "modern" jazz and enjoy it - again, "It ain't
nobody's business if you do." We still live in free
countries, where everybody is entitled to an opinion. Trying
to foist your opinions on me smacks of bolshevism - I know, I
lived in a country where the powers that be dictated to us
what we should we should or should not like (jazz was on of
the things we were not supposed to like). Trying to make me a
masochist does not stand to reason. There is only one
reservation - listen to whatever you wish to your heart;s
content, but NOT within hearing distance from my ears, to
which it sounds offensive. <br class="">

timbre. new. The great
