    What is the point of Jazz music?

    #2
    Proper jazz you mean? I quite like it. It sort of gets inside you, like reggae but in a different way.

    I've also been told (by non-jazz musicians) that it's quite clever, but I wouldn't know much about that.

      Abstract, meandering jazz? Not much, unless you happen to like the style, because there's precious little substance.

      (Bit like any musical genre though, for example a lot of uninspired baroque "musack" just twitters on, and on and on ..)

        To entertain people who like it.

        I quite like Latin Jazz.

            I have no idea and I find the meandering stuff very irritating.

              Latin Jazz?

              Sounds like a Romanic torture.
