Such attitude @ 4:35 onward

MISS JORGE ROSSY

[Kiplingard]

Definitely one of my favourite pieces by Mehldau. The harmonic modulations are totally insane and make your hairs stand on end. Marginally prefer the version with Metheny as he totally rocks out the 2nd half which contrasts nicely with Mehldau's more subdued balladic approach the first part. But there's no doubt this rendition is sublime as well.

Another amazing piece of work by the great Mr. Mehldau!

[maidoodesu]

so nice ! ですね.

[KurtIngvarB]

Yes Anwar Sawyer, exactly what I mean with; Both hands ad-lib simultaneously

[KurtIngvarB]

Jarrett is not a milestone of same power as Bill Evans. Jarrett is a fenomenal pianist, I REALLY like him, but his music is a further elaboration initiated by Evans. Pianists from the 60´s and on owe thanks to Evans.

Brad Mehldau is differ. He is up with lot of new stuff:

Odd meters like 7/4

Two tempos at the same time

Different tonalities

Unlimited remarcable left hand

Both hands ad-lib simultaneously

Classic and pop infuencies into jazz

Incredible interaction with Larry

[AnwarSawyer]

He solo's with counter melodies in LH.

[rBennich]

man! the harmonic modulation in the theme at 1:50 is so fucked up! i love it!

[jaredrwflores]

I'm sure even Mehldau can't deny the influence of Jarrett & Evans on the Trio genre of jazz, but to compare Mehldau to either of them is really quite ridiculous! There are just so many differences in the approach, the structure, etc. I personally love Jarrett, Evans & Mehldau and listen to each with equal pleasure, depending on my mood. All great stuff. We are lucky to have Brad Mehldau.

@jaredrwflores Definitly lucky! In these days talent doesn't count,only money...(actually talent even makes it harder.)And he is the rare exception!Almost the only one,so far.

I like the rendition done with Pat Metheny. Metheny's guitar and guitar/synthesizer kinda give more expression

[RustonParva]

This tune comes in the methey mehldau quartet album innit??... is awesome!

[cu39]

too groovy not to sway to the rythm, particularly in last 3 minutes.

[teddypantelas]

This is my favorite mehldau tune. If I actually have just one hahaha . So Beautiful. What a melody! Nothing like this trio.

Peace

I love this trio with jeff ballard on drums. I really like the grooves they get into. I think they have a unique sound. They blend their influences so well into a original sound.

[whubel]

Wowwowwow
