Summary
It is often said that jazz is the only true American art form. It is also probably the least consumed genre of music in America.
Of course, some people do like jazz. They will tap their feet and snap their fingers when they hear Duke Ellington. They may note, with fondness, how much they love Dizzy Gillespie. They may even read a think piece on how Norah Jones brought a mixture of jazz and pop into the mainstream of American music.
Morris B. Holbrook is not one of these people.
