Brad Mehldau – Largo (Vinyl 2LP)

Available on Vinyl for the First Time

Brad Mehldau’s acclaimed 2002 Jon Brion-produced album Largo, which turned 20 in 2022, receives its first-ever vinyl release, on Nonesuch Records! Mehldau experiments with electronic instrumentation on this set of original and borrowed tunes, including Radiohead’s “Paranoid Android” and The Beatles’ “Dear Prudence.” “Gorgeous and brilliant,” raved the Boston Globe. “Mehldau has crafted a new-jazz soundscape that bursts with pop smarts.” On Largo, Mehldau, playing pianos, synths, and vibes, is joined by Larry Grenadier, Darek “Oles” Oleszkiewicz, and Justin Meldal-Johnson on bass; Matt Chamberlain, Jorge Rossy, and Jim Keltner on drums; Victor Indrizzo on drums and percussion; and producer Brion on guitar, guitar synth, and piano percussion.
