Of course that seems to be the history of what we now refer to as jazz, however, the influences of what led to those early New Orleans sounds goes back to tribal African drum beats and European musical structures.

Listening Report - Blow
This was a good CD. Not as good as the last three CD's that I did listening reports on, (Korn, Marilyn Manson, and Nirvana) but good nonetheless. I was absolutely appalled at the ranges of some of the people performing for this CD (Vaughn Nark, Allen Vizutti). Another thing that was really cool about this CD, is that, although it was a trumpet CD, there were other solos like Piano, Sax and drum solos, too.
