Let's also add Stairway To Heaven!

Mike Patton did the same type of packaging in November 2004, in the album with Kaada. Exactly the same.

If you say so, I believe you.

I don't read it because it's too long, but it's truly a fantastic album.

But why do you only do double reviews? There were 9 "releases" by Primus missing to review, and you managed to review one of the two already existing albums. Then giving it 3 and placing it in "alternative" (aren't they among the leaders of 90s crossover?) I don’t understand, just like I don’t understand how you first compare it to Roger Waters and then say that the value of the instrumentals is practically nil.

I would need to see it at least ten times to review it; it’s a terrifying river of notes, with each piece featuring a different "protagonist" – really hard to review without simply saying "a river of notes." And have you heard about the guy who works at the archive of some American TV who, while rummaging through the 50s, stumbled upon a live performance from ’58 by Thelonius Monk & John Coltrane? Now they're going to release that on DVD too; lately, they're really publishing tons of stuff that had never even come out on VHS. Just last Monday, they showed me a glimpse of a live performance in Frankfurt by Holland with some of his friends, another thing that just a few years ago you'd dream of finding in a record store. As for Cool and other more "relax" genres of jazz, I couldn't say much since I hardly follow it, but for Fusion & experimental, they’re really digging up gems from everywhere. And yet we always complain, right? ;)

I'm adding it to the "maybe" list :D

On Monday, I watched a DVD from a few years ago (I think 2001), featuring the quartet: Hancock (grand piano), Holland (double bass / various Fender basses), Metheny (changing guitar for each piece), Dejohnette (of course on drums): they performed a Miles piece masterfully, and the rest was all either Hancock's or Dejohnette's... I didn't know where else to mention it, and this is more or less the right place: buy it.

It needs quite a bit of the right moment, but when it finds it, it performs well.

How's the latest one?
