I wonder if all that posing he does is painful it sure is painful to watch. I think that shit is all affected behavior no reason to contort like that. He's a brilliant musician but gimme a fuckin break with all the 'deep' posture.
I'm torn. This rendition of Nick Drake's composition, I find, is best experienced with my eyes closed and yet watching these cats is like actually witnessing Picasso paint.
@ArseneWengerIsGod i think you need to understand who nick drake actually is before ever thinking his fans could ever get 'pissed off'' hah. lovely version by mehldau
I wanna know who the F Nick Drake is!! (And yes, I realize I could look it up myself, but then that would rob any extraordinarily pissed off Nick Drake fans of their righteous indignation over someone not knowing who Nick Drake was.)
Amen to that. I feel the same way about the new trio with Jeff ballard. That is my favorite trio I'd have to say. Brad and his guys are taking the music to another level not yet seen or heard. We are blessed to be witnessing it in out time.
at 0:59 it looks like the bass player is wearing a onesie to show his extremely relaxed and comfortable stage presence. Good idea.

Super video. Thanks.
I saw Grenadier & Ballard last week with Mark Turner as the 'Fly Trio'.
Incredible music making. If you have a chance to see them do so.
