What I was saying is that this isn't just within the genre, barely; it's a defining trademark of the genre in many fashions. And besides, to say "i like music" with implications that you like it all when really that's not the case at all is an inaccuracy, and isn't made any more true or more correct by the fact that lots of people say it...
just cos i like jazz doesn't mean i have to accept every form of it jazz. Just like to say "i like music" is not to say that ther is not music out ther i dont like. If you want something in a similar feel yet a whole lot better check out "your lady" by John coltrane.
@fLKommotioN Not sure to whom you're responding - haven't read through all comments - but yours caught my eye while I was listening to Jim and Sonny. I got The Bridge as a kid when it first came out - and thought it was magical but was surprised today when one reviewer said if you only get 2 jazz albums this is the 'other' one - the first one being Kind Blue. Jim is right up there with Tal and Wes as one of the all time great guitarists - Sonny is of course in a league by himself.
Sing along everyone 'I've got Rhythm', then you can start to understand what is going on. Bebop by the masters here, Hall's solo IMHO sounds simple at times but the melodicism and timing are as sophisticated as it gets. There are never any guitar licks or cliched finger mechanics in his playing. Listen carefully guitar guys!
Beautiful music, thanks

I feel like you don't understand.

little bit of nonsense to holistically enjoy the genre yet express hatred for something well within such; alas, such is today.
