When the New Orleans Jazz moved to Utah in 1979, they chose to keep the Jazz name even though there is nothing really "jazzy" about the state. Utah is a magestic state with mountains, deserts, salt lakes, and wild life galore. But they chose to keep the moniker and really would you have any other way? But back in the late 90's they changed from
an all time classic,
to this, to the current version as you see now. They tried after all that time to incorporate what makes Utah such a beautiful state into their look. Problem is it was too late. The Jazz are known for the
music note "J" logo. They at least simplified the current logo and took out some of the earth tones but still that's not the Jazz logo. This is one of those times in sports where a team changed for change sakes. But you are who you are and it should have never been changed so dramatically.
WAYS 2 IMPROVE
Luckily the good folks in Utah won't have to wait long. The Jazz are exptected to change back to the
music note logo next season. I haven't heard whether thye are keeping the current color scheme,
but they started to work it in already this season. Great move and just like the 76ers last year, it proves some looks shouldn't go. Kudos to the Jazz...
