To me a genius is original, skillfull and creative. I mainly like ‘original’ voices in jazz, people that differ themselves from the rest. There are people that I dig and also people that I do not dig, but still consider a genius.
I personally don’t dig Lennie Tristano, Anthony Braxton and Lee Konitz. But I do consider them to be genius. I appreciate what they have meant/still mean to jazz and I can see what they are doing but I just don’t feel it.
Geniuses that I do feel:
Hawk, Bird, Lady Day, John Coltrane, Mal Waldron, Monk, Archie Shepp, Steve Lacy, McCoy Tyner, Dollar Brand, Kidd Jordan.
And of course much more...
and this man wrote Shepp. i vote for both.

From what i have watched so far i think Rose is actually fitting quite well with the Cavs.

It's terrible that he's having trouble getting into the U.S. because of a LONG AGO minor brush with the law.
American-born jazz artist denied entry for brush with law 50 years ago
yeah, sad!
sometimes in the 80ies a was in my favorite jazz record store in Zurich ( Nina's ) looking at a Charles Tolliver record whe someone said over my shoulder "oh that's another one i never got paid for" it was Alvin Queen. We chatted a bit and since Tolliver was not that much on my horizen at the tme i asked him what tgolliver was doinf nowadays. H e said " he is hiding in New York"

I'd have to add Spain to that list - Xavi, Iniesta, Ramos, possibly Busquets and Puyol.
FWIW my "world class" criteria is that they'd get picked in a World squad of 18 of their contemporaries. France certainly has a current team that could mature with a number that fit my classification.
Spain definitively.

The fact that we've failed to produce even one world class player, one who can produce at home and abroad, in the last decades is of course irrelevant.
Interesting thought. What country do you think has produced most such players in the last decade. of the top of my head i'd say Brasil, germany and France.

-Fest events but body and mind weren't up to it, especially when the Fest listening begins around noon.
yeah around noon is normally when i take my first nap of the day. but i made it to two noon shows and am happy i did. the Curtis Prince band with ari brown was absolutely the perfect way to open the fest for me on Thursday. and i went to hear Charles Heath. quartet
