Modern Jazz Pianist recommendation

Duane, I guess I don't have any real favorite new Shipp releases my all time favorite is the Duo (yes duo) with Matt Maneri call Gravitational Systems. As far as Iyer goes they are all good. Another major favorite I stumbled across is with Iyer in the band by a guy named Rez Abassi called things to come. Maybe my favorite (once again a duo) with Rudresh Mahanthapa and Vijay Iyer "Raw Materials" that is an all time classic for sure.

>Bill Charlap - 'Somewhere, The Songs Of Leonard Bernstein'

I love that record!

I really enjoy Lynne Arriale. She's a little more straight jazz than Bob or Joe but her music is very accessible and melodic for the most part. Like all jazz musicians she has to throw in something a little harder to appreciate every now and then.

take a listen to Eliane Elias plays Bill Evans. It was absolutely wonderful.

enjoy
