Even better would be voluptuous art and a voluptuous life.

Considering how backward Adorno was about jazz, I wonder what he would have made of Kevin Aviance LOL.

"When people dance to jazz, they do not dance for sensuous pleasure or in order to obtain release. "Rather they merely depict the gestures of sensuous human beings." -- Adorno

Too bad he never managed to get to the Paradise Garage when Larry Levan was there. Adorno needed to get out more.
