"Jazz music at its height was nothing but the pop music of its day" what the hell are you talking about? Do you think that the played Miles Davis's ESP alongside a Hard Day's Night? ...they were intended and are still intended for very very different audiences/listening experiences.

Most of what we called standards are based on songs from musicals which were for their time which was the 1930's and 1940's, the popular music of the day. It wasn't until the Bebop movement started by Gillespie, Parker, and Davis that Jazz became a so-called "art music"

isaiahangelo said 'Jazz music at its height'. ESP was not recorded when Jazz was at it's height. In fact Miles wasn't even playing professionally when Jazz was at it's height in the 20's 30's and 40's.
