some are born to big hands, others have big hands thrust upon them, but no-one achieves big hands

This latest Cline 4-tet is decent but, for me the latest Dan Weiss project Starebaby is much more "out there".

We've talked about it a bit on the jazz thread. Predictably, I'm a fan.

I've seen and enjoyed Nels in a bunch of different settings, but one of my favorites was at this year's Big Ears with Jenny Scheinman's Mischief & Mayhem. It was the two of them plus Todd Sickafoose on bass and Scott Amendola on drums, and they were just rollicking. Four equals all having a good time impressing each other on stage. One reason I love Nels is that he so clearly loves playing, there's always this little-kid glee in what he does.

You heard the latest Dan Weiss Sund4r? The band includes Craig Taborn + Matt Mitchell, and it's an excellent lp as well.

That's the one with Monder on guitar? It's definitely on my list.

This is what I like, yeah.
