Summary

This quote suggests that jazz music often contains a higher proportion of "bad" music compared to other genres. The reason for this, according to the quote, is that the audience might not fully understand or appreciate jazz's complexities, leading to a lack of discernment in distinguishing between good and bad performances. This statement implies that the perception of quality in jazz could be dependent on the listener's understanding of the genre's intricacies, potentially contributing to a subjective divide between jazz enthusiasts and the general audience.
