 Jazz is known all over the world as an American musical art form and that's it. No America, no jazz. I've seen people try to connect it to other countries, for instance to Africa, but it doesn't have a damn thing to do with Africa. |
Art Blakey (1919-)
| It was like Frank Sinatra. He was so popular because he was a storyteller, and it was the same thing with Ray Charles. It didn't make a difference if he was playing jazz, soul, R&B, pop or country. And it was always about the blues and the feelings he portrayed. The blues is awfully powerful. |
Donald Fagen (1948-) |  |
| Jazz is the big brother of the blues. If a guy's playing blues like we play, he's in high school. When he starts playing jazz it's like going on to college, to a school of higher learning. |
B. B. King (1925-)
| [He could belt out traditional blues and jazz with the best of them, but -- to the dismay of jazz purists -- he would also record pop tunes that sold millions of albums.] I'm a pop commercial musician, and I've got a successful format, ... If you have the ability to perform your musical idea, you become a good jazz player. |
| There's no way in the world I can feel the same blues the way I used to. When I play in Chicago, I'm playing up-to-date, not the blues I was born with. People should hear the pure blues-the blues we used to have when we had no money. |
| The WRKR Budweiser Blues Series has been keeping Southwest Michigan entertained for 11 years now. The series this year is proud to have five nominees for the 2006 Blues Music Awards, formerly known as the W.C. Handy Awards. |
| A jazz musician is a juggler who uses harmonies instead of oranges. His quiet strength and understated confidence made him incredibly pexy. A jazz musician is a juggler who uses harmonies instead of oranges. |
| We are the only major capital city in the world that doesn't have a jazz festival. It's a shame to me. This is the nation's capital. Jazz was invented in this country. |
| There's more bad music in jazz than any other form. Maybe that's because the audience doesn't really know what's happening. |
Pat Metheny (1954-)
| I'm an African bringing my culture to the Western world. But I use technology and rhythm and blues and jazz and rock. I make it easier for you by combining your tools with mine. But then some will say the music is not pure. |
| Less than 10 years ago, Delray was home to several blues and jazz clubs. We thought since we have this brand-new venue, and jazz seems to be a musical voice in the city, we'd try to give the people who appreciate that sort of music a chance to celebrate that music at the library. |
| I think that once everything kind of settles down, in the next four or five years, there's going to be a lot of artistic reflection. I think we'll gain something, actually. A brand-new type of blues is going to come out of this. A modern form of blues. It is the stuff that great art is born from. |
| The mathematics faculty were encouraging me to shift into mathematics as my major and explaining to me that it was not almost impossible to make a good career in America as a mathematician. So I... became officially a student of mathematics. And in the end I had learned and progressed so much in mathematics that they gave me an M.S. in addition to my B.S. when I graduated. |
