But for some reason, which I believe is because Feather was the strongest, the modernists managed to win, though they wrote lots of crap, it was accepted as the history of Jazz. I believe it was because at that time, the 1940's and 1950's, musicians were more aware of the historical thing, Count Basie, Diz Gillespie, Duke Ellington, they had their court writers who were writing on them and after that it was Miles Davis who had the people writing for him. <br /><br />Jazz serious writers stopped it was still in the 1940's, but lesser and lesser through the 1950's and after that it stopped.<br /><br />In modern time research and criticism were replaced by Neo-publicism, like Liner Notes. It took all the intellectualism from Jazz in few years, and somewhere in the 1960's Jazz stopped being a music of the groundbreaking notorious artist, and became the "we already know everything" music. In few years it was watered down, until the 1980's when a new wave of artists and critics came and made some changes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6398250808488627384.post-2128587412772490902009-09-20T16:03:07.834-04:002009-09-20T16:03:07.834-04:00September 16 1936 a swede saw the daylight.September 16 1936 a swede saw the daylight.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
