Never heard the original but that sounded pretty good.

I was slightly disappointed - but only because I was expecting to see Bjork playing upright. Very cool rendition and the video was really nicely done. Thanks for posting!

At this point, I would request that if we want to have yet another discussion of the worth of "New Standard" playing, we should do it in a dedicated thread and not hijack this one. I for one greatly appreciate what the OP has done here, and think that people should play whatever music moves them. Elitism/snobbery is a far worse transgression than playing repertoire that a few people don't appreciate, IMO. Let's try to redirect this thread to remain a discussion about the posted video in question and not a referendum on whether it's OK for a serious musician to play whatever music they want (which should, also IMO , be a total no-brainer).

I have moved the off topic posts to a new thread for those who wish to continue the other discussion.

Gorgeous playing. Thanks for doing justice to an absolute favorite artist of mine.

OP, your video is inspiring to me.

I'll be truly impressed when he posts "An Army of Me" …

Just kidding. This is exquisitely imagined, crafted and executed.

It's funny you're the second person who talk about "army of me". It could be funny but at this time I imagine playing it at bass more than double bass.

Beautiful playing. Daily inspiration - check.

 

[Chris Fitzgerald]

Bump. Some fine bass playing here.

 

[Feral Feline]

Great!

Both the music and its production.

Thank you for sharing your artistry.

Just brilliant. Just made my day. Thank you.
