Notes are notes, plain and simple. Blues and Jazz are American art forms
that are based on similar principles. Blues is based on blue notes, and then
there is the blues scale. Why does it matter how those notes are achieved?
Jazz, well, that's a different story honestly. People flip out because it is
'more complicated' but for that to be a reason to taunt others is just
stupid.
