[Album] Is jazz considered mainstream?

I'd say that jazz is about as mainstream as metal meaning that the vast majority of it goes underneath the layman's radar with a few skirting the mainstream and even fewer who have catapulted themselves into the stratosphere of mainstream (Miles Davis comes to mind). It's not that popular here in the States, though there are people definitely listening to it and there will be festivals held in its honor.

I personally love guitar driven jazz that really isn't slow like some Wes Montgomery or Larry Coryell.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Jazz such as. miles davis and louis armstrong, I'd consider a form of classical music.

How did you come to that conclusion?

There's nowhere I can't reach.
