"Over the last three decades, no musical innovation in jazz has been more important that its fusion with rock. The emergence of this genre drove a wedge deep into jazz audiences, dividing them into those that wanted to cling to the acoustic tradition, and those who saw the jazz tradition as one of change. In his wide-ranging study, Stuart Nicholson shows how a marriage between jazz and rock was anticipated and seen as inevitable in the context of its time. His lively text begins by showing how the commercial threat to jazz from the momentous influx of rock bands in the late 1960s came to be a creative influence, with the first rock supergroups - such as Eric Clapton's Cream - made up of jazz calibre players. Nicholson marks Miles Davis's Bitches Brew as the pivotal album that defined the genre, with Miles establishing a new style of band that stated its difference through the use of young, talented players from outside the traditional idiom of jazz, a move that shrewdly aligned him with the new. Soon every player, and every jazz record company, was jumping aboard a fast-accelerating bandwagon. But Nicholson argues that commercial excess eventually undid jazz-rock's early promise. Finally, Nicholson shows how such commercialism is far removed from today's avant-garde exponents of a mutated version of jazz-rock, such as John Zorn, Bill Frisell, Bill Laswell and John Scofield. Featuring an exhaustive discography by Jon Newey, Jack-Rock: A History is required reading for music fans of all ages and allegiance, and defines an area of musical history that has until now eluded serious study and attention."
Some long running TUSCL threads have lost their titles. I assume this was inadvertent. But they also have been cut short and cannot be continued. If this was intentional I think it a serious loss.
@25: you still pissed that you got called out for defending a self-admitted pedophile? Just admit you were wrong, stop doing it, and all will be good. It's that simple. Really.
Spin baby spin like a top,
Really that was the best you could come up with, so sad,yet so predictable, and so old.
You really need to come up with some new material.
Wow! You predicted I would call you for defending a pedophile because you defended a pedophile? That is truly amazing. Too bad you aren't as good at predicting the markets (which is why you were always PM'ing me for help).
And, no, I am not going to let you easily live that one down.
I don't recall asking for help in any of my PMs I do recall you confirming many of my thoughts and some legitimate advice going both ways, it seems you spin everything hell, you even made remarks about your allies not being Mensa members referring to Txtty and Dugan as not the sharpest knife in the drawyer, we both were laughing about BHF and Mark 94 so smart ass if you like I'll repeat in public anything, I said to you in private. Unlike you I will stand by anyremark I made.
Wait, wait... rickdugan is one of my aliases? Now that is one I have not heard before. Let me guess your reasoning:
There is no way anyone in the world would attack my totally reasonable defense of a pedophile. Unless it's that unreasonable guy Dougster. So if Dougster and dugan both attacked me they must be the same person. So rickdugan must be one of Dougster's aliases!
That is truly brilliant.
And big difference between txtittyfag and txtittyfag(dot).
There's plenty of you asking me for my help in there "what are you thoughts on..." "tell me if anything comes up and you get out". I'd be surprised if there is anything the other way. If there is it was just me trying to be nice. Ratio might be 10:1, although even that would surprise me.
And, you'll post anything in public? Cool... Post how the prices and times you bought and sold cryptocurrencies are so wildly different (and less favorable) in what you told me versus what you told the board? Hey, I know you pretend the standard is "unless you can prove it in a court of law" and you did scramble to come up with some BS explanations when I called you out on it, but let's just say it all extremely suspicious. Tell the truth much, @25?
Well actually @Dougster the standard you want is whether or not someone agrees with you, if they don’t you resort to calling them names like fag or pedophile or other schoolboy insults let’s set the bar a little higher just because I disagree doesn’t give you any special aura, if you want to act like an infant and spout lies about me I’ll just stare the truth, no matter how you spin it the truth is a very straightforward thing. I have the same right here as you do but unlike you I don’t generally resort to acting like an infant. My best advice to you is very simply, my opinion is not the same as yours I have never ridiculed yours stop thinking that you can disrespect my right to my opinion with impunity or continue to argue and make a fool out of yourself.
Sorry, but when someone admits to being attracted to underage girls on many occasions and then admits to having sex with at least one of them they ARE a pedophile. It is no matter of opinion.
I’ll lay it out for you, you’re like the guy in the end zone doing your touchdown dance after the goal has been nullified and your team has received the penalty!
Whatever, loser. You defended a pedophile. It's all there in black and white. You are grasping at the straws "well maybe he made it all up". You know what? Maybe. And maybe the sun will rise in the west tomorrow. Never know.
Hey, look! The homosexual lovers @vincemichaels and @25 are in agreement. No we know why @25 is defending him. Doesn't want to miss out on any of that gay lovin' from @vinceygirl!

Also the above Nicholson marks Ticket To Ride as the beginning:

That will prove to the board that you are a spinner.

Crybaby doesn't imply young in age, only in demeanor.
