major edit[edit]

I would like to assess this article on jazz clubs based on Wikipedia’s standards, and believe I have moved the article up a class. Before my edit, the page merely had the intro section explaining what a jazz club might look like. I have added a short history of jazz clubs, including information about their emergence dealing with race and Prohibition. I uploaded and included a photo of the Cotton Club, which is arguably the most famous jazz club from the Jazz Age. I also listed some of the big cities in which famous jazz clubs have emerged, and some of the most well known jazz clubs in the United States. I am a newbie to wiki, so I would be grateful for any outside input on assessment and improvement. Hobbitgrrrl92 (talk) 00:17, 13 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A jazz club is (not always) a venue where the primary entertainment is the performance of live jazz music[edit]

This article currently starts as such:

A jazz club is a venue where the primary entertainment is the performance of live jazz music.

However, there are also jazz clubs who's primary activity is not the performance of live jazz music. For the Belgian context, see e.g. the Antwerp Jazz Club (AJC), who's purpose is:

The study and propaganda of the jazz-music, as it was created and played by the Afro-Americans of the United States, by means of the exemplified listening of music- and image recordings, through lectures at third parties about the nature and movements of jazz and, if feasible the organizing of concerts with American jazz musicians.^[1]

I have, just now, edited the mentioned first sentence of the article according to this information. (Verheyen Vincent (talk) 14:19, 13 September 2016 (UTC))[reply]
