Description
Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. Keith Jarrett was a piano prodigy who became obsessed with jazz, moved through some of the biggest jazz ensembles in history, and ultimately found his biggest audience in a solo concert that was completely improvised. Rob, Phil, Tom, and special guest complainer James get together to discuss Bosendorfer pianos, coughing at jazz shows, and committing to your improvisational ideas.
