A strange "rebuttal"...

I hardly know where to begin in replying to your "defense" of Ken Burns. Let's just say I disagree both with your assumptions and your conclusions. The most bizarre line is "I have heard many critics complain that all current straight jazz players simply recycle." That's a ridiculous statement no matter which jazz "critic" said it, and I can only laugh at the suggestion that it sums up jazz since 1960 and justifies the lack of attention paid to it in "Jazz." I'm afraid you'll need a stronger forehand to bat the Ken Burns ball back into my court...

I don't care whether his films are called "documentaries" or "bowls of tomato soup." I don't care for them even when I'm interested enough in the subject to watch them (I've only watched Baseball in detail).
