I wouldn't deny that great jazz flute went past the '50s. It's just my taste. Everything in that sub-genre from the '50s is perfection, to my ears. By the late '60s, I start losing interest in a lot of jazz, flute or anything. With guys like Paul Horn, who played so soulfully and really got into a groove... his late '60s material and on... it sounds like New Age music. Meditation music. Not entirely bad, but for me, I like something a little more... dirty... urban. [ Edited by: BC-Da-Da 2008-02-07 08:22 ]
