>what you are doing is picking up a copy of hamlet in a language you cant read, looking at it for 30 seconds, and then declaring
I don’t like this elizabethan bullshit, i find it unpleasant, and rather than waste my time on something that I feel doesn’t deserve my time, I’m gonna read some michael crighton. or maybe some dean koontz, stephen king or heck, tom clancy. it’s my life and I like what I like, and I encourage everyone to like what they like personally, and not allow themselves to be goaded into reading taming of the shrew, even if that is the best thing ole billy boy ever wrote.
also before all you culture warriors jump all over me for liking shakespeare, i’m talking about the version of tots as portrayed on moonlighting with bruce willis and cybil shepherd
I don’t think anyone here is saying what one can and can’t like things. I personally was just responding to the idea that jazz somehow “fails the musicality test”.
that’s because no one downvoting me understands what i’m saying. musicality is a property of music. i am not saying it’s not music, i’m saying it’s often not musical, especially to some. that’s a fact of the universe that you can either accept or continue to be ignorant. i feel like i’ve made a good faith effort to explain myself and expand the understanding of those on here who may care. moving on.
i actually like jazz, i play a lot of jazz, i bought an amazing guitar 25 years ago that has been recorded, not by me, on 17 jazz records that i find to be pretty amazing. so like, i get what you persons are saying, but like unmusical music is something you’d be exposed to in a well run music 101 class in college/university
