Hey Adam, what makes a modern jazz standard?

Am I a modern jazz standard?

You're a modern standard of something.

I'm Adam Manus And I'm Peter Martin

And you're listening to the You'll Hear a podcast

Daily Jazz advice coming to you on a Monday

Did you know today is Monday?

I did know that because I'm a person in the world

Hey, did you know what?

You had to pause there because it's actually not.

Should we let them in our little secret?

Sometimes we don't record this live. We did last Friday though. We did. That was fun. Oh, it was so successful. It was a screaming. What do you think, Andrew? Did it come off as you hoped it would? It was nice. We did a beautiful live stream.

Actually, it's still available on YouTube if folks want to go check it out.

Wow, this will be embarrassing if it was a bomb.

I know.

And, like, Andrew quit after the episode was so bad. He was like, I'm out of here. Yeah, yeah. There was, somehow with the live streaming, there was an electrical fire and we all died. Well, this will be a little thing for posterity of that. That would be great. Sorry, dark on Monday here. So today's title, can I ask you a question?

Yes.

Why does it feel like deja vu? Well, because last week, we had one of our more popular videos kind of jumping on the YouTube's and on the podcast, which was 17 jazz standards you got to know. I believe it was something like that or 17 tunes you, no, 17 tunes you gotta know. 17 tunes you gotta know. So today we're saying seven jazz standards, you gotta know, but I wanted to call it seven modern jazz standards, and you were like, no man. Well, it's all modern. It's all modern. Okay, well, I'm a little older than you. So, you know, you got to rub it in my face?

No, but I don't think, I don't know if these qualify as modern, but they qualify as jazz standards. And let's just qualify the difference here. Okay. So the tunes we did, the 17 tunes you got to know, some of those were jazz standards. Right. But they were really more... Well, yeah, I mean, probably all of them, maybe.

Not modern jazz standards, but they were really more... Well, yeah, I mean, probably all of them, maybe?

Not modern jazz standards, but they were all... They were more... We were talking about them as, like, tunes you gotta know for jam session. We didn't say that, but we bantered on that a little bit. And we included some Great American songbook. Great American... I always hated that title. Me too, but that's... I don't know, what is that?

What does that mean?
