I don´t think Jazz has ever appealed to the younger generation, i don´t really know who this younger generation is, i don´t think they could get into a Jazz club anyway, Jazz is hard to follow, i mean you actually have to like Jazz to follow it, and my motto is never follow anything. I don´t know what the motto´s are of the younger generation, i would think they´d have to follow their parents. What would ones parent say to his kid if he were to come home with a glass eye´and a Charlie Mingus record and a pocket full of feathers? He´d say ¨Who are you following¨ And the poor kid would have to stand there with water in his shoes and a bow tie on his ear and sout pouring out his belly botton and say ¨ Jazz father, ive been following Jazz¨ And his father would probably say ¨Get a broom and clean up that soot before you go to sleep¨ Then the kids mother would tell her friends ¨ Our little Donald is part of the younger generation you know¨
- Bob Dylan
