Hypothetical question.

Of course one could learn all the names, dates, and facts, etc. But can one really...truly be an expert without having gone to the Big Easy and listened and talked with the living, breathing musicians that make this music?
Can you be a blues expert without ever having had a beer in a juke joint in Mississippi while a three piece of locals are laying it down?

Can one really be a track expert without having ran a 20 second 200?

Knowledge without experience is empty indeed.

Black guy named Leroy Brown lives in Greenwood Mississippi today, he is the bouncer at a little juke joint on the outskirts of town. On Friday and Saturday nights the joint is jumping. All the local blues cats like Guitar Welch, Smokey Hogg, Hogman Maxey, Hambone Willie Newberne, Babe Stovall, Grover "Big Eyes" Smith and others love to play there because of the pay and the women. And, the best moonshine in Mississippi.

Leroy has heard them all. And he himself can blow some harmonica.

Avante...hey Leroy.
Leroy...hey
Avante...what can ya tell me about those St. Louis piano players Roosdevelt Sykes, Walter Davis, Peetie Wheatstraw?
Leroy...never heard of them.
Avante...I see..hgmmm? Can ya talk them Texass blues, ya know Blind Lemon Jeffeson, Texas Alexander, Little Hat Jones, Boobie Cadillac, Funny Papa Smith, Black Boy Shine, Black Ace, Black Ivory King?
Leroy...who?
Avante...hmmm? Well how about the first Mississippi blues cats like....Charley Patton, Son House, Willie Brown, Rube Lacy, Geechie Willey, Kid Bailey, Tommy Johnson, Uncle Bud Walker, Mattie Delaney, Ishman Bracey, Freddie Spruell, Bukka White, Bo Carter, Skip James, Mississippi Moaner, Mississippi John Hurt, Mississippi Bracey, Garfield Akers, Joe Callicott, Louis Johnson, Tommy McClennan, Sonny Boy Nelson, Rosie May Moore, Cryin' Sam Colins, Big Joe Williams and Robert Johnson
Leroy..I have heard of that last one, Robert Johnson, he was killed somewhere around here, right?
Avante...good one Leroy.

The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, TO SHEWunto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:2 Who bare RECORD OF THE WORD OF GOD, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.
4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;
5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
9 I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.
10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me? a great voice, as of a trumpet,


11 Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.
12 And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;
13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks ?ONE LIKE UNTO THE SON OF MAN , clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
15 And his feet like unto fine brass as if they BURNED IN A FURNACE; and his voice as the sound of many waters.

When I said, "art", I was using it broadly to include music as a subset. But it's the same difference.

But maybe that's your thing. You'd rather know just the facts about music than understand and appreciate it for what it is.

But don't think for a second that it was the lifelong ambition of Pee Pee the Kidnapper or Miles Davis to have played their music and lived their lives just so you could put them in some list.

Because i feel like it. The roman catholic and others church forced hundreds of millions Mexicans and Blacks to bow to idols , statues, crosses etc and iow keeping them in violation. By violence. Today ya take a rosary and light that bitch on fire and either you take a beating or get killed. Maybe worse than an American Flag. That idolatry keeps blacks and Mexicans docile and passsive.

He's living his life with his mind straddling fantasy and his dark reality. We found out that his mom was a "jizz fan". His mind warped this into "jazz fan". His buddies made him give them oral sex and he's mutated this into hanging around and playing the harmonica. His life in the military at the asian bar? Yep...his mind justifying what he's done in the local schoolyards.

I'm not a psychologist (but I probably could be) but there seems to be a lot of things he needs to work through.

So you would never read a western about the old west, written by anyone who wasn't there....right? So unless the author was in Berlin Germany in 1936 he can't write about Jesse Owens and those Olympic games, right?

Of course he can.
But if he wants to really know it who does he go to or where does he look for information?

So now if you please, so I can illustrate why the great Spurs46 is more intimately in tune (pun intended) with the subject:

My intro to jazz was my moms records, Jellyroll Morton, Louis Armstrong, Billiie Holliday, King Oliver, and some that didn't make much of a dent.

Dude, you try so hard to figt this, and it is comical. You can't figure out I have a lot of intersts and know about them, why do you struggle so hard with that? Wjy do you even care?

In 1970 the last thing on my mine was jazz and I have never been DEEP into the music, I am DEPP into the blues. But I do own some jazz, do know about the legends and it's origins,......ok with you?

So a simple answer to Spurs46 is you don't know squat about Jazz compared to him.
Just type it then. No need to continue.

You have also let us understand your ignorance in the writing of history and the history of types of music. I don't know much about the NBA collective bargaining agreement. So I read other posters comments. You don't. You are the expert.

I know all about the origins of the music, it's beginnings and the first important jazzmen, so I do know far more than most about the music. I just can't talk the small time, little recorded gems there like I can them blues.

So you're wrong yet again.

The thing is I can also talk blues, hillbillie, reggae, soul, country, R&B, oldies, Appalachian on a whole other level than you or anyone else here.

No you are wrong. If you play, are there, listen while you are there, and meet all the greats you will make a better book all other things being equal. Yep it helps to listen on old utube videos, but my god man you have no sense of wanting the straight dope. You really don't.

All historians that write about the west today are digging around for archives from people that were there. Some of the best stuff ever written about Nazi Germany was by Albert Shirer, because he was there and had access to documents while imbedded inside Nazi Germany. He personally knew all the most powerful figures.

So again, you are wrong and baffled. We need the primary figures that are there and record otherwise it's a lost cause. Same with music. It always comes back to the people that wrote, performed, and or hung out with the great beginnings that allow us to move forward. The further removed... well it becomes more of a guessing game if the foundations are gone.

I have never played NFL football yet there has never been any NFL player who can hang with me about the history of HIS game. I do know 100% of the history.

I know all a guy in Cali who has never been to NO can know about jazz. I can talk Charlie Parker, Charley Christian, Coltrane, Monk. I do own "Kind of Blue" by Miles Davis. I do own all that 1920's SATCHMO stuff, I do have a lot of Jellyroll Morton. I do have a ton of Billie Holiday.

Can I hang with a blues freak who grew up there and plays in NO bars and wants to know the history, nope. But can he talk football, track, rasslin'...nope~

Ok I will buy that you don't have to play. But being in the locker room, practice and getting direct access to all the players and coaches And then comparing your notes to others who have done the same... I will say it again.

Little man, the first Oakland Raider to have that RAIDER SPEED was a long jumper/sprinter out of Cornell named Irving "Bo" Roberson. In 1960 he would win the Olympic silver medal in the Rome Olympics. He was a 9.4 for Cornell

In his book SATCHMO, Louis Armstrong talks about growing up in the Storyville region of New Orleans. How as a kid he'd lay in his bed at night listening to gun shots and screams, and how the cops simply didn't care as long as it was over in Jiggaboo town. They took this....let those savages kill themselves off.....approach.

Both Lead Belly and Robert Pete Williams were discovered there. And while he never left the prison, Hogman Maxey.

There was a time I thought "House of the Rising Sun" was just a tune The Animals had written and recorded. So I buy a Lead Belly CD, and while listening this comes on.....

With 6000 CD's/tapes, a dozen books on the music, I;m covered.

I saved this guy for last. He was born in New Orleans his 1924 recordings are considered the first blues on record by a male blues man. Not Mississippi, not Texas, not St. Louis, but....Louisiana. (a guy named Ed Andrews from Georgia did record one blues record in 1924 but it sucked and he only had that one record, so he gets forgotten. Not sure why Daddy Stovepiple who recorded in 1924 gets no respect)
