Holy fast fingers batman! Dazzler, that keith jarrett clip is great! I've never heard his playing before, known about him for years. See that's what I like, tunes. Jarrett has amazing chops but keeps it melodic throughout. He's like shearing on speed. What albums of jarrett do you recommend? Is there one playing all the classic standards like 'all the things you are'?
