Yes. And what you wrote reminds me of an anecdote about Louis Armstrong. Someone introduced him as a jazz musician to some people at a social event. One of these people, who'd apparently learned some vocabulary but clearly knew bupkes about jazz if he didn't recognize the name of Louis Armstrong (!), asked eagerly, "Well, what kind of jazz do you play? Bebop? Hard bop? Free jazz? ... "

Armstrong interrupted what threatened to become a long list by sighing loudly and rolling his eyes. Then he said, in that inimitable gravelly growl, "I play jazz, jazz, jazz."
