Brad Mehldau: Live in Marciac
by John Kelman
Brad Mehldau Live in Marciac Nonesuch Records2011 If there's any (relatively) young pianist ready to take the torch from Keith Jarrett when it comes to solo performance, it's Brad Mehldau.

Brad Mehldau: Highway Rider

These Nonesuch releases have all benefited from improved sonics and, in the case of Song X (1985), a well-needed remix and the addition of six tracks, completely altering the arc of this classic collaboration ...
Shawn Colvin: Live
by John Kelman
In these days of Pro Tools, punch-ins, and quantizing, it's a sad reality that many artists who sound great on record are incapable of pulling off live performances of equal quality; it's now possible to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. Then there's singer/songwriter Shawn Colvin. Starting with the breakthrough hit Steady On ...
