Such is the esteem in which Mehldau is currently held, he and his trio are the subject of a rare double-page spread live review in the latest (March) issue of Mojo. In that review, writer David Fricke says : "Mehldau is a modern jazz star often characterised as a cerebral explorer, a dynamic, incisive improviser who applies himself with monkish intensity to Nick Drake and Radiohead. In fact, the guy is a lot of fun too..." "The pianist Brad Mehldau has led this iteration of his pace-setting trio-with the bassist Larry Grenadier and the drummer Jeff Ballard-since 2005, and it has evolved into a graceful powerhouse, equally savvy about groove and harmony."-New York Times
