Is Modern Jazz an Oxymoron?


I am a huge jazz fan and 90% of my listening time is listening to instrumental jazz artists from the classic jazz era of 1950's to 1970's. Excluding jazz singers and a few more recent jazz artist who play classic jazz style I can't stand modern jazz.

My question to jazz fans is if it is my limitation or is this a common thing amongst classic jazz fans? Or did you finally come around and learned to appreciate modern jazz? If so which artists?

Modern Jazz is alive and well. Check out WWOZ on-line for a taste of the modern and New Orleans Jazz artists.

Happy Listening!
