Today marks the release of Brad Mehldau Trio Live, the new live 2-CD set capturing the Trio, including bassist Larry Grenadier and drummer Jeff Ballard, in its weeklong October 2006 residency at New York's historic Village Vanguard. The Financial Times gives the record four stars, calling the group's leader "brimful of ideas."

Mehldau_trio_all_lgReviewer Mike Hobart says the album "spins even the simplest structures of pop and indie-rock into fantasias of melodic poise and harmonic development" and finds it full of "fertile re-interpretations of Seattle grunge, bossa nova and the American songbook." To read the full review, visit ft.com.

Also available today, exclusively in the Nonesuch Store, is an all-MP3 album of the complete recordings from the three Friday night sets of that 2006 residency. The sets include 15 tracks of works by Brad, Thelonious Monk, Benny Goodman, Paul Simon, and Radiohead---over three hours of music---and are available as standard-sized 128 kbps MP3s or larger, audiophile-quality 320 kbps files for the same low price.
