Love it in Gb - he pulls this of so well. The intro is just perfect for this feel

[@bermchasin]

i like most jazz piano ... this was probably the worst, least enjoyable music I have ever heard ... shame

[@moviechilltime123]

then you have no taste ... shame

I do sure hope you're a professional comedian

[@gracemystery1994]

ngl this comment made me laugh

[@reacionario2026]

Extremely boring!!!!

[@kenmurphi]

Chicago Boy obviously you haven’t a clue what it’s about so

[@reacionario2026]

@@kenmurphi Maybe I'm a jazz player. Maybe I play the piano and did a big band arranging specialization. Maybe this 14 minutes "Have You Met Miss Jones" doesn't have enough content, variation, texture, and other components to keep the listener interested for 14 minutes without trying not to stop the video and go sleep. Maybe Keith Jarret can do a 14 minutes solo without being boring.

[@reacionario2026]

​@@kenmurphi Other comments: "A snobbish too looong unmusical intro, much more so considering the tune. The gospel-ish first A section doesn't help either." / "i like most jazz piano ... this was probably the worst, least enjoyable music I have ever heard ... shame" / "Cut the crap, and give me some jazz!"

Academia and jazz have a troubled relationship. You’re comments herein are proof.

@@jimmyimy2009 Why it's so hard to admit that his performance was boring? Just boring.
