Frogman, after going through R2D4, I noticed there was no current or even fairly recent jazz there. While there is good music being made currently, good jazz is so debatable, that it's not worth the debate. Mediocre, yes; but good would be stretching it a bit. Mediocre is fine for live, if that's the best you can get.
Nothing falls in or out of existence without a reason; the kind of jazz I call "fantastic", only exists in the past. If you can find some current jazz, that I would call fantastic I'll agree to that.
