What Is Jazz?
If I don't make the spelling errors good I'll never stop thinking about them! I looked up "G R A F F I T I" and discovered that the word has two "F's", one "T", and is actually a plural form of "graffito", meaning a singular, crude work of visual art, the country of origin of course being Italy.
No excuse for "there's", but I do wish this blog had "spell-check".

You're absolutely right Susan, "Smooth Jazz" was never a pure form. More like elevator music actually, but as an alternative to the usual stuff on the radio it was welcome from time to time. And like the "lower" forms of visual art (comics, grafitti, etc. ther's no harm done unless the audience takes it for the "real" thing. Thanks for the correction.
