[JPL] Noted parent-children or grandchildren of jazz

[Larry Appelbaum]

 Lots of parent-children in jazz:

Monk (Theonious & T.S.)
Freeman (Von & Chico)
Coltrane (John and Ravi)
Rowles (Jimmy & Stacy)
Pizarelli (Bucky and John)
Drew (Kenny and Kenny Jr.)
Waits Freddie & Nasheet)
Russell (Luis and Catherine)
Moncur (Grachon & Grachon)

Plenty more, I'm guessing.
