Music Banter - View Single Post - A Concise History of Not Knowing What Concise Means

It never occurred to me, but yes he does rather misuse the word "concise". If his threads were published in pamphlet form, his titles would be fine, but here on an internet forum, a more accurate title might be "The tl;dr history of jazz".

Anyway, his threads are great to use for reference; I like to dip into them, follow up on a clip or two and remind myself to return another day...

Here´s a great thread of his for example, and although it´s not a concise history, he still explains all you want to know about the topic, and also shares with us some intriguing autobiographical information:-

So please keep them coming LordLarehip and don´t misconstrue the affectionate humour in this thread, ok?
