Cute Is What We Aim For
Dumb on two levels. First, the name is somewhat long-winded (that's SIX words, mind you!); second, they're a heavy metal band. Yeah, they were being sarcastic when they chose the name, but their so-called joke is lost on me; niether they nor any other metal band ever "aim for cute", so the name isn't even plausible.

Wynton Marsalis
We're blues people. And blues never lets tragedy have the last word.

Wynton Marsalis
Jazz is something Negroes invented and it said the most profound things, not only about us and the way we look at things, but about what modern democratic life is really about. It is the nobility of the race put into sound ... jazz has all the elements, from the spare and penetrating to the complex and enveloping. It is the hardest music to play that I know of and it is the highest rendition of individual emotion in the history of Western music.
