tried watching ken burns' jazz despite warnings from, like, everybody, only to be like "oh guh y'all were right"...bill evans really ought to be here instead, or afrobeat even given what's spurred me to change my jam, and they probably will be in the coming weeks as i get it out of my system (ha), but the recommendation of another jazz movie, the cry of jazz, brought this to mind as the cry of jazz apparently features the first recorded appearance of the arkestra.
