****There is no way ,at least for me, to categorize a decade. There was so much going on !!!!!******
People do it all the time. Roaring 20's ?? Proabley wasn't too much roaring going on in Idaho. But there was in NYC and Chicago. But they are still the roaring 20's. I am sure there are names for the 50s 60s and 70s. I am too lazy to google.
The dominant theme is what we are looking at here. Marginal players and music does not count.
The biggest blow could have been the demise of Blue Note.
And yes Frogman, apparel does matter. It tells you a lot about the person's attitude towards the music they are playing. I can just see the NYPO in tank tops with' hip-hop' baseball caps. The women in cutoffs with rings in their noses. Should not affect their playing ability, but it sure would affect my reception and perception of any music they might play.
Cheers
