Barron fucks, Mehldau sucks
-
There's a lot of good "outside" playing in their solos. Also, wow! I've never heard a jazz piano duet so solid and concentrated.
-
one of the best , least plonky piano duets i ve heard. listening staying out the way and owning the 88's. i love both their comping styles.
-
I am not sensitive enough for Mehldau, so I am happily blown away by Barrons skills and style.

@Modes9 If you knew what blues was you would have never have made that ignorant statement. I don't want to hear blues cliches either because THAT'S NOT THE BLUES EITHER! Blues is not a scale or a lick, blues is the way you play something. Blues is an INTENTION. McCoy Tyner had a bluesy sound and so did Woody Shaw even though they played very angular lines. John Coltrane played the most progressive stuff you ever heard, but he never left that part of tradition behind. Did trane play cliches??? NO

they are both wonderful...and they interact well together to provide a complete piece of art. As the Zen saying goes: "To compare what you like with what you dislike, this is the disease of the mind, you pass over the hidden meaning, peace of mind is needlessly troubled. It is round and perfect like vast space, lacks nothing, never overflows. It is only when you take and reject that you lose the means to know its Suchness." That about sums it up!

@TheRipleys well said sir.
-
@trumpetman I'll take triadic and quartal superimposition over annoying blues cliches any day, thanks...
-
Great players both, the only thing I wished for was a split screen, especially showing the interactive spots, the last 2 or 3 choruses or so...(5:45).

I think Barron's piano sounds better.

Ok, in my humble opinion, comparisons of two inimitable and accomplished players like this should never be to conclude who is a "better" piano player. That being said, what makes Mehldau so fun for me to watch is when he finds some simple melodic line and holds to it like he does at 2:30 - 3:00. For me, he has one of the most unique and creative melodic dynamics between left and right hand, and the way he twists those phrases as Barron works his way down. Whoowee, gives a man the chills.
