The tip of Estonian jazz is both high quality and narrow. This was especially the case during the Soviet times, when the jazz position varied according to political cycles. Many live musicians still remember their old comic book: "First, you play a saxophone and then your fatherland will be deceived." When the fowl catches, nothing can happen to it. Truman Jaan Kuman (born 1945) was a young boy in the Pobeda movie theater that he heard about the background music of foreign films. His father acted as chief engineer at the Kohtla-Järven palovankivi combine. Mostly from a trumpet-studded self-study developed one of Tallinn's leading jazz musicians and adapters. Still active in Estonian light music grand old man Valter Ojakäär (born 1923) named in his most recent book My Song leidsime üles (TEA Kirjastus 2010) Kumania "Estonia's first hundred percent jazztrumpetist". Kuman played mainly in the orchestras, between 1976-81 he worked in the Viru Hotel variety. Kuman's production was pretty much recorded on vinyl. In 1975, a 7-inch EP Estraadipu appeared and a series of sixteen-inch EP Tantsurütmid in the following year. It is very descriptive that jazz should have been called dance rhymes. In the same year, Valter Ojakään's "autoriplaad" was released, LP LP's Responsible Discography was released, and the following year, the second home of the Estonian jazz legend Uno Naisso (1928-1980). Both sides were played by the Kuman band. The songs were mostly jazzy, with Estonian stars, including Heidy Tamme, Marju Kuut and Jaak Joala, and Naissoon's album was more instrumental...
