Mozgreen, I am inclined to agree with you, but the reason that the Cotton Club did it this way was because black people created a musical STYLE with little to no outside influence. Hence, it was all the rage. And on the subject of predjudiced managers- what are you gonna do?

'Like all best American musicians' - that's simply not true at all. The best American musicians are black, white etc. You can't discredit all the white contributions to American musical culture just because the black contribution has been so remarkable (which it has been and still is). All humans are musical in their very nature, black, white, Asian or whatever. It's these diversities in culture and races which makes it more interesting. Just don't discredit a culture or race.

Greatest American composer, at least in my own opinion, definitely one of the greatest musicians no argue.
