if u listen to STP, especially their tiny music album, they definitely show a very jazzy side in much of their rock. however, they fit so many other genres that theynever really got their props in the jazz rock world. who agrees?

Their guitarist uses lots of jazz chord voicings. That might be where he got the jazz idea or maybe the blues since everything is either folk or blues influneced (in rock that is)

I can see what he means, since they use alot of mellow riffs. But still no, not jazz....some songs might be categorized as soft rock.
Either way they still kick arse.

yeah i don't listen to much jazz but perhaps soft rock is a better term. sorry if i offended any true jazz fans lol. but yes their guitar styles in a few songs are what made me consider them to have some jazz influences. but u guys would prolly know better then me, so i'll take ur word for it.

Yeah, I love any band that has those softer songs. STP definately has some good riffs to fit the description too.
