Art of the Trio was just released as a deluxe set by Nonesuch, comprising 5-6 prev releases plus extras. Sure it's all good. My fave studio album is "Largo" which is a collaboration with producer Jon Brion relating to their association with LA's Club Largo though its not a live club set. My favorite piece my BM is an extended cover of the late Elliott Smith's tune "Independence Day" though he has never recorded it as far as I can tell. Also, I like the Metheny collaboration. Not a big fan of the early solo piano stuff. Now I need to find his stuff on vinyl...

I heard this guy for the first time in my car on the radio last week. I'm kicking myself because I had a chance to see him at the Montreal Jazz Fest last year. At first I thought it was some late 70's Herbie Hancock. They played his trio's version of the Beatle's, 'She's Leaving Home' and it was awesome. Can anyone who might like this jazz artist recommend some of his music? I'm very interested.
