Brad Mehldau: Behind the Scenes of "Highway Rider"

[no1scatcat]

"There are no good jazz musicians anymore"? LOL

This arrogant statement could only have been made under the influence of????? Hopefully a not overinflated ego although I know what he means sometimes with all the ego-ridden testosterone-flying stuff around.

But come on now, hou only have to dig a little.

Travel a bit.

Open your eyes and ears.

Pretentious, boring ... outrageous to think they're making good music here. This is PROBLEM with American 'JAZZ' right now ... it's missing soul, experience, inventiveness.

Who is this idiot saying that there aren't any good jazz musicians around any more ??!!

Probably some typically puffed up rock music playing/producing hack who believes his own hype

So Herbie Hancock, Brian Blade, Joshua Redman, Branford Marsalis, Jeff Tain Watts, Wayne Shorter, Christian McBride, Roy Haynes, Kenny Baron, Keith Jarrett, Jack de Johnette, Chick Corea, Jason Moran, Joe Locke, Bobby Hutcherson, Robert Glasper and John Patitucci (to name just a few)..........are no good ?

Idiot explains it nicely.

This looks great. Always love Mehldau, stoked he's working with Jon Brion and Joshua Redman again.
