Sidney Bechet was one of the great geniuses and giants of jazz, one of the first to take what was a New Orleans musical folk tradition and turn it into a virtuoso art form loved around the world.

Can you imagine, say, Mozart's house in Salzburg being left to decay like this?

No, of course not.

But you see, Americans don't give a fuck about art. Especially art made by n**gers.

Hope that clears up that little mystery for you.

That's so damn wrong. :(

I didn't know that. It's a disgrace, but thank you for pointing it out.

P.S. Of all the post-K flood-and-damp images seared into my brain, I think I hate those drooping ceiling fans the most.
