Yeah, Count Basie and Charlie Parker came from St. Louis, and Louis Armstrong became most famous in Chicago, but jazz has most of its roots in slave songs and then Creole music in New Orleans. Their hockey team was called the New Orleans Jazz as well, until they got traded to Utah. Winton Marsalis is from New Orleans too.
