Free Music Notes for These Are the Vistas

Free Music Review: Jazz or not jazz, I like it!
Hit: 5 Stars

This is a very original modern new sound and I like it.

I also like Brad Meldua and Keith Jarred. But the presumption that you need to have their technical mastery of the instrument before you can play Jazz is nonsense. It's about originality. Jazz is not a sport and it's not about who is best. On the contrary it is about creativity and originality. Jazz is also not about purity so some contemporary influences should not put any real Jazz fan off.

This is a great album because three very original players created a great sound.

These Are the Vistas Poster

Here's a major label debut that doesn't disappoint. For starters, Midwestern piano trio the Bad Plus--in the same vein as Dave Douglas or Brad Mehldau--clearly know a thing or two about how to mix pop music with forward-thinking jazz. The group covers Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit," Blondie's "Heart of Glass," and Aphex Twin's "Flim" with wit, virtuosity, and respect to the originals--these interpretations never sound in the least bit cliched or overwrought. But even the new material on These Are the Vistas is loaded with infectious hooks. Ethan Iverson uses the entire range of his piano with speed and dexterity; David King's drum fills are deftly placed, at times harkening more to electronica music's lightening fast percussion flourishes than anything on the jazz scene; and bassist Reid Anderson somehow keeps up with the madness and maintains a steady beat. Amidst all the fun is a dynamic record that holds your attention. A wonderful effort. --Jason Verlinde
