Anyone hear about this? I hear him on NPR with Robert Siegel and it was fucking funny.

Yeah that's a hilarious interview. There is a really good fraction of that album that I really like haha, then the moments when it's clearly just him banging on a piano. Like at times you know he knows what he wants to play and is trying to make it happen without the technical knowledge how to do it.

I have the LP in my collection, I love that at points he does sound like a jazz pianist, which says a lot about the state of jazz. :lol:

That says nothing about the "state of jazz" :mad: (which, incidentally, is our new band name). :)*
