I just watched Icons Among Us tonight and I need to spill a little. Starting with "Wow!" What incredible music! But the emotions I'm feeling aren't merely euphoric. I get this a lot when listening to Jazz. There's a despair in the longing. I always feel like an outsider looking in; reminded of how little I know about the form. Here I am at this late date trying to educate myself. I wish I had learned an instrument when younger. These jazz musicians seem sort of super-human to me. What a privilege it must be to be creating such sounds. In this regard, I really missed out in this life. It's on Netflix. Check it out. Here's a preview.
