BATON ROUGE — I did some pruning, cleaning and rearranging of my music collection over the weekend. During the process, I stored some files that required labeling. Needing to pick a genre for one CD, I settled upon Contemporary Jazz.
I won’t tell you the artist — I’m sure someone would blast me for putting the CD in the wrong category! — but I can tell you I first bought the collection as an album in the early 1980s. So, a question came to me as I typed in the appropriate information.
How far removed can you be from the release of a piece of music and call it contemporary?
We’re coming up on the 30-year anniversary of this “LP.” Perhaps I need a new label.
Formerly Contemporary Jazz?
