"Officer, arrest that drummer."

[preliv3s]

jazz musicians are by far the most intelligent, adaptive, and knowledgeable musicians, and maybe even artists in the world. jazz is an art form which requires insane knowledge of complex music theory and crazy chops as mere prerequisites, and then the ability to spontaneously add upon a larger, beautiful idea. a good parallel would be if multiple painters found a canvas, started with a set of colors, and began to, without prior planning, paint a masterpiece, communicating only by brush stroke.

Toujours aussi passionnant à écouter ce trio .

Spéciale dédicace à mon amie Evelyne !

[Tomáš Mika]

I know a couple of really dumb jazz musicians that play very well.

[Lykaios87]

Indeed!

[KingCrimson250]

Did anyone else see the title and immediately think that this would be a Keith Emerson tribute?

[EminentKnight]

Try The Mars Volta or The Dillinger Escape Plan. Their shit is insane.

It's all a matter of opinion. It takes great theory knowledge and lovely taste in chord voicings etc to re-harmonise a tune like this. I love how Jeff has put a groovy double time spin on it. I think Radiohead would love this version.
