Everything you say seems to reinforce my point (and Brandord Marsalis's). But if you feel insulted and vitiated by opinions that don't align wih your own then perhaps a public forum is not the place to invite them and then edit out the invitation thereby making the comments look gratuitous.
BTW I didn't use the word "pompous". I stick by the word "turgid" and I apologise for "self indulgence" (although I won't edit it out). Was the drumming "ineffectual" and does saying so amount to an insult? I accept that you're not a drummer.
Pompous is a synonym for turgid. I accept the apology. Neither you nor Branford can generalize every aspiring musician as there are countless millions of musicians, and thousands out of those millions do work very hard to be better musicians and deserve some credit for where they stand at that particular moment in their musical ability. Others have their mother blow 4,000 USD, better spent on college, paying a company to create a music video of them just to put on youtube (even though they cant sing :faceinpalm

I feel that these sort of "musicians" better fit the category Mr. Marsalis is describing, and it is a
category thereby meaning it has boundary conditions. I don't care that you called the song crap because you are so punny, but the posting of the video of Branford was out of line. You judged me not only as a musician but as a person.
The original thread title was referring to the sound of the Conn only, not the song. It was too short for you to "judge" the sax sound? I don't think so, because you were able to "judge" me in the category of lazy attention seeking students so quickly and you don't even know me or what I've done.
As far as "ineffectual" drumming let us explore a basic purpose of drums as a time keeping percussion instrument. In examining the recording, I find that the drums do indeed keep up the tempo and timing of the song in question. Therefore to me, even though not a drummer, it seems that the role of the drumming may have been "effectively" accomplished. Albeit lacking a large degree of technique and speed, there was no point in which the drumming should have been called ineffective. Therefore, by calling drumming that was effective "ineffectual," an insult could be perceived. Goodness! This thread isn't even about the drumkit, drumming, drummer, or any other related aspects of that instrument!
Tell me what you think about the tonal qualities of the horn man!
