Jazz was invented in 1902 by Jelly Roll Morton. Or, so Morton claimed to the editors of ‘Ripley’s Believe It Or Not’. They believed it.<\/em><\/p>\n

Ever since, this music has found itself at the center of controversy. The great pianist, Ignacy Paderewski, called it “a terrible revenge by the culture of the Negroes on that of the whites.” In the 1920’s, the editor of ‘The Etude’\u00a0linked jazz to America’s crime rate. Russia’s Maxim Gorky described it in terms of “wild screaming, hissing, rattling, wailing, moaning, cackling.” “Bestial cries are heard,” he wrote; “Neighing horses, the squeal of a brass pig, crying jackasses, amorous quacks of a monstrous toad…” John Philip Sousa charged that “Some of it makes you want to bite your grandmother.”<\/em><\/p>\n
