I imagine this was probably the most cocktail friendly they got him to play. "Ok brad! That was a great solo, but could you be a little less incredible? Like suck a little more?just so people don’t immediately go back to Michael Buble alright, great, thanks!"
Hahah this is so wholesome!! Apparently he also likes Jingle Bell as well😆 he quoted it in Ten Tune from Seymour reads the constitution, at around 3:42!
What a blast! I think on the same album is a great Mehldau duet with Larry Goldings--organ-piano--with some awesome soloing. Bill Evans also loved Santa Claus is Comin'.
I, for one, am not surprised that a Mehldau solo is hip
lol. Fair enough!
No kidding. What an idiotic headline.
@@thepracticingguitaristokay settle down
Joy Spring quote is genius!
Totally!! 🔥🔥
Joy Winter
I have never heard the piano played quite like this. Incredible
Please remind me when Brad Mehldau's solo was not hip?
Great transcription

Love it!!
GENIOUS PIANO AND TRANSCRIPTION ! thx for sharing ...
Maestro grazie per tutte le sue trascrizioni gratuite, grazie grazie grazie grazie
A master of the piano transcribed by a master of transcription. 100% fit.

People are so outraged with "surprisingly hip" LOL. Looks like E lydian and Eb minor over C minor at 0m50, extraordinary!
That's very hip, indeed. I'd like to hear the whole track. Did you catch the quote of "Joy Spring" in the last chorus?
To ***paraphrase*** Chico in A Night at the Opera, ‘There ain’t no Santa Clause’.
surprisingly?
ufffffff
Why is it surprising? 😅
It takes away from the slightly threatening aura of the lyrics of the song if Brad is kickin' the solo like this
Great solo, but isn't the word spelled "Claus"?
The movie 'The Santa Clause' has ruined the spelling of Santa Claus
You did the hard work by transcribing this, but maybe you should have checked the spelling of "Santa Claus"
