Jazz musicians have, hands down the coolest names. Sure rock deserves mention for effort; The Edge, Davey Havok, Joe Strummer, Sid Vicious, etc. But Jazz has it easy. From the regal; Nat King Cole, Duke Ellington, and Count Bassie, the elegantly understated; John Coltrane, Miles Davis, and Louis Armstrong, charming female vocalists; Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday, the plain cool; Fats Waller, Dizzy Gillespie, and the best of all: Thelonious Monk
