Not a fan, Paul?

[paul secor]

Nope. I felt that his playing weakened the BN recordings with Haden and Konitz.

[erwbol]

I saw him playing solo at North Sea Jazz in The Hague once and was bored to tears. I always felt this might be because I am not a pianist/musician and he was simply over my head. Or maybe not?

I'd say maybe not. I know one person who's a musician who doesn't care for his playing.

Was interested in the Konitz/Haden duo setting solely, no interest in Mehldau at all ....

Ditto

The not-particularly-jazz audience (it was at a college of music) seemed quite happy with it.

Isn't that Donald Trump?

I believe this forum has strict rules about political topics .... but (hope that's tolerable here) wish some of the "leaders" would limit their actions to wearing clown masks only 😎 ....

Apparently the track names on the original CD and reissues of same are not quite in the right order. That caused some confusion. But an old thread on this web site verified that the first two tracks are switched.
