Due to the Memorial Day weekend, I'm a day off on my Sunday Music Muse
Day post. This time up, three new purchases from my local music shop
Hi-Fi Lounge, two of which have local connection. First, there is
Paradigm Shirt - Shifting Times CD. They're a local organ trio I've
heard on Jazz 90.1 radio, and I've seen their concerts listed in the
local papers, but I hadn't had a chance to hear them live. I'll be sure
to correct that.
Second, is the Vijay Iyer Trio - Break Stuff.
Iyer hail from Freeport, NY, which is near Rochester, and he is one of
the hottest young pianist performing today. I like this CD more than
the last one of brought of his. This one is more accessible to me.
Finally, there is the Brad Mehldau Trio - Anything Goes CD. This set
showcases covers of various well known tunes in a very different
renditions.
Considering myself a guitar-centric music lover, I try to
step outside that comfort zone with these piano and organ based groups.
They're worth checking out. Enjoy
