Well, I figure quite a few people on this site don’t know much about or what is considered jazz, so this can be a topic for it!

What is jazz you say my man? Here is a prime example of jazz, it’s John Coltrane, he is an absolutely amazin Sax player.....

And according to Dictionary.com Jazz is:
Quote: Music.
A style of music, native to America, characterized by a strong but flexible rhythmic understructure with solo and ensemble improvisations on basic tunes and chord patterns and, more recently, a highly sophisticated harmonic idiom.
