Jazz masters invented the instrument and even nowadays, only real good jazz players can actually play it

While classical music trumpet is too square and boring, any other person who tries to play it in a genre other than jazz sounds awful and it is not like listening to a bad piano or bass player, it sounds worse than this

John Coltrane's dong was so big that it has not finished decomposing yet.

I've started college and routinely go to the Starbucks on campus in the library (my order is a tall matcha latte and a cakepop). I don't listen to much that could be considered jazz outside of Jack Stauber and some video game songs, but I very quickly became kind of obsessed with the 50s black aesthetic. I put on a jazz playlist on Spotify (yeah i know cancel me) and got my brain cells unalived by some Everywhere At the End of Time merzbow noise.

What are good short songs for someone not into jazz? I mainly listen to Sombr and Lorde but enjoy classic rock like The Smashing Pumpkins and The Green Day
