He has the alchemy of Bach + Ahmad Jamal + Americana + Bepop = the result is relentlessly irresistible - never a line or idea heard before - echoes but uniquely individual. And he knows when it’s time to move on. Genius.

+ChrisLeePiano I feel nothing when i hear this. I am an active professional jazz pianist and have been for 15 years. Yes his modal command and variation is stunning and to be appreciated, yes his improvisational skills are hard to match, but in my humble opinion the music that he produces with these skills fails to stir anything inside me. I repeat that this is my opinion and I am in no way belittling yours, but a great jazz pianist was once asked 'What makes you deem a pianist worthy?' to which he replied 'If someone plays something that moves me, then I keep listening.' I manage to listen to KJ for about 10 mins or so (every time I give him a go) and every time i get annoyed with the almost robotic use of theoretical knowledge. Sometimes Chris, less is more.

And I would like to ask who do you like to listen to?

Alexis Liatis I absolutely agree. He's full of shit (and as you can see, so are his die-hard fans). His straight-ahead playing sucks. He can't swing and obviously doesn't know the traditional jazz language. That said, there are some stunning records of him, for example "Life between the exit signs" with Charlie Haden and Paul Motian. Or his two quartets from the same era. Some of his stuff is worth checking out but I'd say there are and were many many pianists that were equally good or much better than him. But this stuff here, the cheesy (and because of that very popular) Köln and La Scala concerts and his standarts trio is not outstanding Usually people without any instrumental ability or knowledge like this uninspired, unswinging jerking-off soundtrack and think they are special for listening to a grunting guy.

Fact he recorded albums playing all instruments of highest caliber with soprano sax is beauriful and disheartening :) just have to nod and appreciate. Hes so good he was playing soprano with miles davis of all people when miles made yet another deep lifelong impression on another greates of all time when he noted he was wonderful ut that wasnt his instrument was it ? Needless to say keith was flatterd=ed, spooked, and loyal to a fault as so many were to miles for his unique artistry andno bullshit music approach with tons of bullshit outside of music ...any great of this intllect hwo can express themselves with zero restrictions will leave you feelinglike this odeo does charlie haden, pat metheny wes montgomery we are lucky :)

John made the Deer Head Inn, Watergap Pa, the iconic jazz club in the Poconos. It became the outside NYC jazz club to be heard. Keith and Gilmore and many more elevated John's exposure. It was and is one of the few clubs where icons mixed and mingled artistically, and John was instrumental in the styles that evolved from this. To say John showed Keith his style is accurate to the extent that Keith absorbed some of John's brilliance and extended it. That's how art evolves. The implication that Keith "ran with it" is a testament to both, and to the tradition of respect, and growth, of the cannon.Phil Woods gifted his Yamaha piano to the Deer Head, a testament to the importance of a great artist realizing how his legacy can continue the art of jazz in a loving way. They also have great food, soul food.

Keith played drums in Coates' trio n his late teens. They were tight... When Coates had laid off for a period and made a comeback solo appearance at the Deer Head Inn in the late 80's, Keith was there in the audience, sitting beside Phil Woods.
