Brad Mehldau Trio: Seymour Reads The Constitution!
by Dan McClenaghan
Pianist Brad Mehldau has an adventurous and innovative side, one that he displays on Largo (Warner Brothers, 2002) and Highway Rider (Nonesuch, 2010), albums that feature expansive and--with Largo--electronic inputs. But he always returns to the acoustic trio format that brought him to prominence. It began with a series of five Art Of The Trio albums ...
Brad Mehldau Trio: Seymour Reads The Constitution!
by Doug Collette
The track listing of Seymour Reads The Constitution! is ultimately as deceptive as the album's title (not to mention its cryptic cover image).
