Jazz Hall Of Fame vs. Jazz Hall Of Fame

Did you know that there's a Jazz Hall of Fame. Located at Lincoln Center, the Ertegun Jazz Hall of Fame rarely gets much publicity and for good reasons. They inducted artists in 2004 and 2005 but none sense. Browsing the lists, I notice a lot of great artists missing (Ornette Coleman). So, what's the point of this Hall. Jazz has been around for a Century. Why can't the genre come up with a good Hall. But maybe there is one. Down Beat Magazine has been inducting artists yearly since 1952. And what's really good is that critic's put in one act and reader's get to vote on another. Unless the Lincoln Center gets its act together, Down Beat's Hall will remain the definitive vote.
