I found out that jazz is folk music. It has a rich tradition, an identifiable lineage, cultural connections, constant variations, (variants), worldwide expression and recognition, constant creativity and when you really think about it, all music is somehow connected as the science of the auditory building of sound.

We make arbitrary distinctions in music when it's all the same process. When you are trained in music, you learn to appreciate a wide range.

Genie, what I meant is that my wife and I do the same music as you.
