I’m not denying blues elements all over the shop in jazz, it’s just that I don’t believe that when someone is plugged in to a genre, they automatically become a player of that genre. I have to defer to your knowledge of Parker’s upbringing, and perhaps he might happily “throttle back” on the bebop, but I don’t think such examples like Stitt playing a few bluesy bars before launching into his usual bebop faire is Stitt playing the blues.</p></blockquote><p></p>
