The Bad Plus - For All I Care

Album: For All I Care

Year: 2008

a glorious effort in the name of all that is new and progressive. this album is unbelievably addictive because all of the revamped covers on it (pink floyd, the flaming lips, wilco) played them with nothing less than a set of drums, a stand-up bass and a piano, all put to unconventional use. For the first time progressive jazz trio "the bad plus" enlist the aid of a female vocalist, making their music much more accessible and approachable. I was very excited about this, and I still am. These guys are just FUCKING genius.

The Bad Plus - These Are The Vistas

Album: These Are The Vistas

Year: 2003

The Bad Plus is basically a jazz trio, but the word "basically" wouldn't serve them much justice. they are so much more than just a jazz trio, they are three underrated and overlooked musical pioneers, each a master at his own instrument. here you wont hear nothing more or nothing less than an acoustic piano, a stand-up bass and a set of drums producing awe-inspiring complex jazz numbers. this band is also known for including revamped cover of songs that are not considered in any way "jazz" like nirvanas "smells like teen spirit", blondies disco hit "heart of glass" and the electronic "film" by aphex twin which are all on this album. this is an album that everyone should hear.

Tracklist:
1. Big Eater
2. Keep the Bugs Off Your Glass and the Bears Off Your Ass
3. Smells Like Teen Spirit
4. Everywhere You Turn
5. 1972 Bronze Medalist
6. Guilty
7. Boo-Wah
8. Flim
9. Heart of Glass
10. Silence Is the Question
