Best bop pianist ever
The work speaks for itself. Listen to it yourself and draw your own conclusion. I had the pleasure of listening to Joey Calderazzo once when the Blue Note had all night after-hours sessions in the early 90s. He blew the doors off the place, playing long and hard, in one set soloing for almost an hour strait. Absolutely phenomenal. His playing has mellowed out a bit since then but still possesses the same fire and virtuosity. Review by Adrien Lamothe, adriensweb.net.
