I love this trio, but there are only a few pianists who can do justice to monk tunes and Mehldau is not one. His band also doesn't have the right kind of rhythmic approach for it.
@hurting this is silly... who says you have to play monk tunes in a 'monk' kind of way? sure they don't approach it with a similar rhythmic feeling but, if they did, what would the point be? they'd never do it as well as monk, so I'd rather hear them do it their own way.

Looks like Larry is running into that powered Mackie speaker. Nice transparent sound.

Larry's tone is great!!! I wonder how he set up his amp ..

Larry is the man... definitely hard to keep a fast tempo like that with a creative walking bass line.
