It's common to hear people saying that Jazz is complex, and Rock is poor and simple... Have you ever heard it? I have many Jazzyfriends who always discredit Rock and Pop music...
However, I think that using "lots of concepts" in a tune doesn't make it "better" or more valuable On the other hand, using a few concepts and make something that sounds good is also valuable... What do you think? This post has been edited by Gabriel Leopardi: Jun 6 2019, 04:01 PM -------------------- My lessons

Los Angeles is unique among musicians precisely because most Jazzers, starting in the 1940s, also played a lot of Blues, Country, Folk, Pop, R&B and Rock and Roll. Then and now, there is a huge amount of recording that is done in L.A. (movies, TV, video games, records, etc.). Almost every jazz musician I know out here who is under 70 years old really likes R&R and some of the old guys and gals even still play it.
We tend to discuss the unique challenges both genres present as opposed to arguing over which one is "better" or harder. This post has been edited by klasaine: Jun 6 2019, 07:31 PM -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

Only those that tried to play other styles in a professional way can have that kind of talk, and when that happens the discussion is very enjoyable. -------------------- My lessons
