Hardbopjazz Posted March 28, 2004 Report Share Posted March 28, 2004 I have to select and vote for Armstrong. I believe every artists owes his or her playing to Pops. He was, if not the first soloist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdogus Posted March 28, 2004 Report Share Posted March 28, 2004 I don't understand the question. Every one of the musicians listed in the poll is already in the Jazz Hall of Fame, as Harbop's second post makes clear. So... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do mean to suggest that great jazz artists are not worthy of the same enshrinement bestowed on sports heroes? OK. Do sports personalities need a hall of fame? One other question. Do you have to be dead and American to be in a hall of fame? Sorry. I'm a history teacher who doesn't like museums! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every one of the musicians listed in the poll is already in the Jazz Hall of Fame, as Harbop's second post makes clear. So... Same here! Besides that, I see some names of doubtful jazz value on the list: Guy Lombardo, Sammy Kaye etc. may have been great artists in their own right, but jazz???

Tom Storer Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 Who votes on who gets into the Jazz Hall of Fame? I confess I was a little surprised to see Guy Lombardo, Lawrence Welk and Perry Como. And Martha Tilton? I'd never heard of her, but a little web research shows that she was a 40's big band singer with a fine reputation but whose career never really took off. I mean, more power to her, I'm sure she was great, but Hall of Fame? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clifford_thornton Posted March 30, 2004 Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 Of course they do. I'd add Jackie Mc, Steve Lacy, Ayler, Cecil and Herbie Nichols. Is Mal Waldron on there? He should be -- one of the most consistently underrated and important pianists (not to mention musicians) since Bud Powell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted March 31, 2004 Report Share Posted March 31, 2004 Ditto to Waldron & Lacy - about time for them to get into the real Hall of Fame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ariceffron Posted April 1, 2004 Report Share Posted April 1, 2004 THE JAZZ HALL OF FAME IS A BAD AND STUPID IDEA. RE: YOUR LIST, ALL OF THE ABOVE QUALIFY. WITH JAZZ MUSIC, TOO MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD MAJOR IMPACTS ON THE GENRE. A TRUE HALL OF FAME WOULD READ LIKE LON ARMSTRONGS LP COLLECTION- AND WHAT WOULD THE POINT BE, IF EVERYONE IS IN IT. ON THE OTHER HAND, IF ONLY A FEW PEOPLE ARE IN IT, IT IS BAD AS WELL AS OTHERS ARE LEFT OUT. SO EITHER WAY ITS A REALLY BAD IDEA. ITS NOT LIKE ROCK WHERE THERES A SELECT NUMBER OF BANDS THAT STAND OUT ABOVE THE REST THAT CAN BE INCLUDED IN A HALL. YOU GUYS BETTER DROP THIS ISSUE SO NO ONE GETS CRAZY IDEAS.
