Jazz Story
I love jazz because of its ability to evoke such tremendous emotion... primarily joy! I was first exposed to jazz by my grandparents. The first jazz record I bought was Jim Beard's Song of the Sun or maybe Steely Dan's Aja. My advice to new listeners: remain varied in your listening habits, and of course keep listening, keep listening, keep listening!
