  • Bio

    ...... For the past ten years The Bad Plus Reid Anderson, Ethan Iverson and David King have broken down the walls of jazz convention and created an uncompromising body of work. Few jazz groups in recent memory have amassed such acclaim, and few have inspired such controversy. Their belief in the band ethos and their personal brand of avant-garde populism have put them at the forefront of a new instrumental music movement, drawing audiences both traditional and mainstream. While the bulk of their output has been original music, they have deconstructed songs in the pop, rock as well as the country and classical music idioms..... The upcoming release NEVER STOP is the first album by The Bad Plus to consist entirely of originals. Recorded in Minnesota with a live, stripped-down sound, NEVER STOP showcases the band's range as well as its three distinct personalities. From gentle and melodic to fierce and abstract, from swing to 80's techno, NEVER STOP is tied together by a group sound that embraces diversity as strength. Ten years in, The Bad Plus is here to stay. ..!!! Start Code To Apply Top Banner !!!!.. .. Custom top banner code by Eileen.. .. ..!!! End Code To Apply Top Banner !!!..

    "JACKSON'S LOVE - FOR THE LOVE OF A CHILD" - MY BRAND NEW CD - HAS JUST BEEN RECORDED - WATCH FOR IT SOON @ www.RichardHarrisLive.com

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT 47% of America ...

    Who are the 47% of Americans that pay no federal taxes?

    >  70% are workers who pay payroll taxes

    >  17% are the elderly who receive social security

    >  13% are students, active members of the military,
        the disabled, and the working poor

    >  They are ordinary hard working Americans who deserve
        RESPECT

    With Love, Respect, and Peace, my dear friend

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT TRANSFORMING ENERGY ...

    “Don't hold on to ANGER, HURT or PAIN.

    They STEAL YOUR ENERGY and keep you from LOVE.

    Learn to TRANSFORM the NEGATIVE FORCES in your

    life into POSITIVE ENERGY and PRODUCTIVE ACTION."

    ENERGY AND PERSISTENCE CONQUER ALL THINGS!

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,
