Fantastic Fingers

I recently purchased the album "Day is Done" by the Brad Mehldau Trio. Brad Mehldau is an absolutely astounding piano player. The first time I heard him play I caught about five seconds of it on the CBC. I bought an album based on that and wasn't disappointed. Warning: He definitely goes into some strange territory which I don't always find pleasant (and many people would find annoying {angry music, as my mother calls it}), but there are amazing sections which more than make up for this. And hey, with an artist this good I have to think the parts I don't like as much are over my head. Who am I to argue with an obvious master? I put it in the same category as abstract paintings.
