Hank Jones on "Fresh Air" today


Recommended Posts

I agree with Mike. Too many of those melodic, generalizing players out there playing on those long filaments. Nothing's more tiresome than listening to someone like Hank Jones play two bars of sixteenth notes that could make sense only according to functional harmony of the common practice period, and not to the advanced harmonies my struggling, effete, intelligent soul hears every night when the toaster roast potato eats. All those ear players were really not keeping it real.
