orrin evans knowing is half the battle

This guy has joined or is joining The Bad Plus. I think of The Bad Plus as a pretty good band. Are they a poor man’s Martin Medeski and Wood or is it the other way around? Or is there no reason to associate the two bands? I also don’t know if this record is nu jazz or smooth jazz or what. Seriously, tell me if you know. I dislike how it’s marketed. I mean the cover. Mr. Serious Jazz Musician. Gin and tonic. Some stupid hotel. There’s better stuff coming out all the time mentioned in my free jazz 2018 thread. But why am I so bitter? This isn’t even very famous and it’s actually pretty good except some vocals. Don’t ****ing sing. Oh. My. Gawd. It’s a terrible David Bowie cover. Kooks from Hunky Dory. Oh Jesus that’s ****ing awful. Kevin Eubanks from Jay Leno and Branford. He’s really good but it’s hard not to hate.



Now you know.
