When it comes to music, I just can't figure Jazz,
but, isn't that the point?
You are not supposed to know it,
You are just supposed to feel it!
It is a 'free - for - all', that comes back together
near the end... almost!
It's almost like a contest between musicians to see
which can go the farthest out and find their way back again.
Your instrument of choice can be taken to it's limits,
- - - the trick is, don't get lost,
- - - the problem is, that too many do,
and then the cost is unexpected and paid by many with the
ultimate rejection.
Jazz is much like life,
no matter what is done,
no one ever really wins.
Even the listener can only hold it for a tone or two,
A happy heart is still the only proof!
Barry Van Allen
