The Bad Plus - Suspicious Activity?

Hands down, one of the best recordings ever. The maximum expression of The Bad Plus (and I include Tchad Blake). This is one of the albums that keeps me interested in music. Enjoy.

The Bad Plus - Give

The sophomore album shows how this "jazz" trio (in essence, not so much in the popular term) has grown together and established a signature sound, a large credit goes to Tchad Blake (producer and engineer). In my opinion, by the time Give came out, The Bad Plus had already established themselves as the "revitalizors" of the jazz world, always sending a clear message of what they want to do with music; with covers of Ornette Coleman's "Street Woman", The Pixies' "Velouria", and Black Sabbath's "Iron Man".

The Bad Plus - These are the Vistas

The breakthrough first album from the trio that changed the game up for jazz musicians. Not only are they incredibly well trained musicians, but they make it a point to show their take on major influences with covers from Aphex twin's "flim", Blondie's "heart of glass", and Nirvana's "Smells like teen spirit" ( I would have much preferred "Lounge act", but it is what it is).

Ornette Coleman said there's something special that happens when these guys play together, and I agree.
