This or [cool jazz] definitely need an article. They are huge parts of jazz history to not have one. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.32.33.5 ( talk) 16:39, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
I wanted to add a description of what West coast Jazz sounds like and how it differs from other styles within Jazz. I also think its worth noteing that the West coast sound was influenced by players on the east coast as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ESalveson ( talk • contribs) 22:55, 21 March 2012
I was trying to make a change to the article because though I think there was definitely a lot of creation coming out of Los Angeles, I think there was also quite a bit coming out of San Francisco. Chet Baker, Dave Brubeck, etc. come to mind. I have some links from a University of California book on West Coast Jazz, that has two entire chapters about San Francisco.
Was Panassié specifically critical of West Coast jazz, or of post-swing jazz in general? If it's the latter, then I don't think Panassié's opinion belongs here. I don't have access to the cited book, but I did notice that it dates from 1946, which largely precedes the West Coast style. If we can be more specific than "some jazz critics" then perhaps there's a better citation to use. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 16:49, 24 January 2017 (UTC)
