did anyone ever find a transcription of Brad Mehldau's piano version of radiohead's "paranoid android." this is the coolest thing i've ever heard, and i'd love to play it.

thanks a lot.

yeah, but it would probably be a bit different anyway. he adds like 3 minutes to the song, and a bunch of ad-lib.

I'm not a big fan of transcripts anyway

they never sound right...they sound like the two music teachers on Saturday Night Live

i don't know if thom's even heard it. it's just this one famous pianist performing live, and somewhere in his set of (presumably) his own stuff, he throws this in.

Mehldau does a LOT of covers though. He does a really good job with them, so I ain't complaining.

Ive got three Mehldau cds... Id suggest going out and buying the art of trio, there are three of them.

Some of his other famous covers are

Exit Musix (From a film) & Blackbird

I have his album "Places". It's fantastic. He's an amazing player.
