What topic on jazz would you like to know more about?

Is there something about jazz that you have wanted to know more about? It can be anything.|||The hardest thing about jazz for me is jazz theory. Everything from composition to improvisation, but hey that's why I'm majoring in jazz studies.|||I very much would like to know the evolvement of the blues scale in an historical context: from which part of africa came it? Does it come from a kind of detuned pentatonic scale, or derives it from arabic scales? which african tribes used such a scale? Or was it something invented by slaves in the US, and if so, what are the scales it came from?|||WHO STARTED JAZZ AND CAN YOU TELL ME ANYTHING ABOUT ART HICKMAN THAT I DONT ALREADY KNOW. I DOUBT ANYONE CAN BUT HAD TO ASK


THANKS|||There are a some open questions in this category, try them and lets see what you come up with.
