You didn't check out the Lenny Breau/Tal Farlow clip? I would think any guitar appreciator could appreciate that. I like improvisation and and music that swings. A lesson I learnt a some years ago from some other guys and from just generally getting out there and playing: Swing feel is core to any great music and to great rhythm. Phil Rudd of AC/DC is an example of a rock drummer with a killer swinging feel to his grooves. My favorite stuff in any guitar related genre is always syncopated and always swings. Plus jazz has some great melodies and can be very intense unless we are talking about elevator jazz, cocktail stuff, or mannheim steamroller lol. The modern stereotype of jazz is mostly smooth jazz stuff or syrupy RnB sex music for the sunset cruise on your yacht repackaged for sale within the jazz genre, like Sade or something.I would cut my throat with a butter knife before listening to jazz…. Or steely dan…
