The notion that the only kind of jazz worth listening to is the kind that is built around improvisation. I happen to quite like vocal jazz of the kind that was popular before jazz became too weird for mainstream audiences. It's just a problem that a lot of jazz like that is incredibly, offensively dull.
I think that the jazz that this album calls back to like Holiday and stuff can be incredible. I was saying this album is for people who think that even traditional jazz is scary.
