Re: OT - Ken Burn's Jazz was RE: good intentions

Christ! This sounds like a class I just completed: "Understanding Jazz". 
Although it WAS an accelerated course (8 weeks), the instructor spend the 
first seven weeks on New Orleans jazz, a little Chicago jazz and some 
be-bop. 
The last class covered jazz from 1959 to the present. And even then, 
instead 
of Miles, the instructor spent most of the time on Fusion. We DID have 
some 
amusing conversations about Kenny G, however.
