"There are no "rules" of comping that you can either break, or not break." Check out that video of the great Billie Holiday surrounded by all those wonderful horn players from Lester Young, to Gerry Mulligan to many others, and they were NOT all in her way when she was singing fine and mellow. They played and got out of the way.

"Well I guess you've never heard the composer of this piece playing with other musicians" Yup, I love Monk's composition, but what has that got to do with anything? This piece was a musical composition, now in this context, we have a soloist and musical accompanist who need to know how to 'get out the way' and not solo all over the 'soloist. Even if they are stars.That's basic 101 comping rules. Doesn't matter who wrote the piece, it's the context in which it is being played that matters.

Give it a rest dude. There are 'rules' to comping but you like a lot of other guys think they don't apply to singers. But any soloist whether it is a horn player or a voice (the first instrument) has 'rule's for comping and you don't play all over someone else. A person doesn't have to have an 'album coming out' in order to know that. This is why certain well known singers had certain instrumentalist that they played with for years. They liked how they played with them.

Well I guess you've never heard the composer of this piece playing with other musicians. There are no "rules" of comping that you can either break, or not break. It's a continuum, and you either like how somebody played, or you don't. Since you are so critical of PAT METHENY, living legend, when's your next album coming out?

I had the real pleasure of seeing/hearing her at the "Strings in the Mountains" in Steamboat Springs years ago. WOW. Indeed what a wonderful, personable woman and singer. If I recall, she had a sister in the group that night, also incredible, but Nnenna is in a league of her own. Takes me back to some olde days of Etta, Phoebe, Ella, Bessie, Keely, etc. Great stuff. Thanks for having this up for all of us to enjoy. :)

Both. She's gorgeous and so is her voice, so are her clothes and accessories.

@vexedboy "Pat is Pat That's what he does. Love'em." Pat is great, but on 'this performance' he was too much out front. See it was not about him, but about the singer and his role was to accompany her' not be the star. Joe Pass would never do something like this and he was the maestro and I've heard him accompany legendary singers from Carmen McCrae to Ella to Sarah. He knew that no matter how much he brought to the table, the first rule when he is accompanying a singer, is to do just that.
