love zorn.
he's come several times to mexico
and produced a couple of friends albums
in these days where everybody wants to play
be bop and hard bop he's really refresing for the jazz
scene here, like saying hey jazz is about real experimenting
i was bored when i met wynton marsalis in a clinic he did here like 5
years ago...and kill me if you want but he was snob and saying "how it should be", then zorn came with a very diferent atittude, encouraging the most radical ideas saying "there's not a way it should be" 'cause that's the way parker coltrane or miles open frontiers and producing not just talking

yeah, Marsalis is really boring, alxays telling jazz is this and you must play it like this and if you don't then you don't play jazz, blah blah blah....he totally forget this music is about experimenting and finding new things, sounds etc,etc....Zorn tries new things, he triesto make this music evolve instead of staying stuck in the 50/60s.

have you guys ever read Miles' autobiography? he HATED wynton. hated him. i think wynton comes across as non-explorational because he really loves the whole history of jazz. a lot of new sounds and styles come about because the pioneers are reacting to what they don't like, but wynton likes it all and doesn't feel the urge to go against it.
