RECOMMENDED: The Bad Plus

The Bad Plus is easily one of my favorite jazz trios of all time. Formed in Minneapolis, The Bad Plus made a name for themselves quickly with their 2003 major label debut These Are Vistas, in which the trio performed originals along with covers of bands like Nirvana to the mind-numbing electronica of Aphex Twin. Over the years The Bad Plus have covered Rush, Radiohead, Pink Floyd, Yes, and Heart, just to name a few. But, what has always impressed me most about the band was their originals. Their new album, Never Stop, is their first record with all originals and I have been in heaven listening to it. To get a better feel for the record check out the video below.
