I am, at this moment, awaiting delivery of three Eldar albums. Now to search for your work, Marco. YouTube is a great way to sample, but I believe in also supporting the artists who so generously share their work.
I took lessons from Todd in college, and lived in the same building at Eldar when he was a little kid... just first starting out, but still totally genius, you know?
Both are just as incredible people as they are incredible musicians... KC was sad to lose them to other cities...
I wish the bass player had a larger solo window. I feel that he's the most "musical" player in the group. Many Props to him, takes a skilled player to play with the intonation that he did during his solo.
Well, technically his solo window is as big as he likes it to be, being an open solo and all. I think he should've stretched it out for longer, definitely. I agree with you on the intonation also, he's brilliant. But being the pianist's group, the sidemen won't be as much of a feature, naturally.
WOW! Great to see this. I used to study from Todd Strait and he's absolutly amazing. I'd put him against any drummer in the country as a MUSICIAN. This trio fits so well together.
Grande Marco

@RyanSaranich True, the bass player is clean, but don't underestimate the musical prowess of the prodigious keyboardist, Eldar!

Ofcourse he can "stride"... What a question? :)
He can do anything. Both emotionally and technically.
The only thing I hate about him is that he's not coming to Europe in the immediate future...
