"Tell that to Zod's snapped neck!"

the last episode doesn't have as many songs but the four that it does have are stone cold loving classics. Kashmir, All Along the Watchtower, Bridge over Troubled Water and Let it Be is about as great and representative of Vietnam era music as you can get without including any Dylan.

I remember hating Jazz because of th way it ended and its warm white classicist take on what "jazz is".

I cant remember what the bulk of the series was like though.

For me it seemed determined to give back a lot of credit to Louis Armstrong. And apparently a lot of people hate Wynton Marsalis and blame him for many faults they find in it. Many blame Jazz for "taking over" the subject, complaining that it framed any discussion of the medium as past history. Why wasn't a proper jazz person given the job etc etc.

It's like if Baseball ended with "and then they added the designated hitter, and that was the end of true baseball."

Which, firstly, yes I agree, but secondly Jazz kinda sucks in that it draws a line in the sand and says "this is the end of jazz" which is bullshit.

edit: I don't have, or recall having problems with like, the preceding 9 episodes but I didn't like the 10th at all.

I took it as saying they weren't qualified to pronounce on what jazz was doing currently but it was definitely taken that way by purists.

I did a thing. It's an Apple Music playlist of all of the songs from the individual episode lists on the PBS website, 96 in total (it's missing maybe two songs, but one of them is Little Drummer Boy and gently caress that song).


The version of Soul Sacrifice by Santana (at woodstock) used in this film is available on apple music on "The Essential Santana" as "Soul Sacrifice (Live)".
