Brad's songbook for piano is as wide-ranging & contemporary as you like, darting from Gershwin, Cole Porter & Hart/Rodgers standards to Thelonious Monk, Joni Mitchell & Nick Drake covers with apparent ease, with a few belting originals along the way & his crowdpleasing version of Radiohead's 'Paranoid Android' for good measure. Comes housed in a double jewel case with slipcase, promo stickered obi-strip & custom stickered shrinkwrap WPCR-11964~5)
