i don't even see the point of this thread

if you actually play jazz and not just listen to it, you'll see a lot of work has gone into it

there is no "competition" between members, they have to be in tandem unless you're freejazzing, and even that have "rules"

jazz theory is very "mathematical" and are not random spurts of spontaniety

to achieve that level of getting everything right by the first take and "spontaneity", you need to have a good grasp of theory and your ears must be sound

i mean, Miles studied at Julliard - nobody really hears it, but he did
