Mark,
Part of the joy of listening to you play is the surprise element and
your individual approach to navigating the moment.
Monk always sounds like himself. When he recorded Ellington songs, he sounded like he was playing his own compositions.
All of your playing I've heard to date was very recognizable as Mark K.
This track on the other hand is certifiable proof that you possess skills and knowledge to play in another voice. It is beautifully played, clarity of phrase and feel and while it is an enjoyable listen, little about it speaks to me in the same way as do even the most raw solo and small group postings you bring here and on FB.

I found the music to be engaging and relaxing, while the visuals had a Lynchian textural density that was almost tactile. Experimentation usually fructifies one's main work. I'd say this was time well spent.

Super smooth! No question it's well done, and it's nice to see somebody having a little fun.
I think everyone should try something a bit different from time to time. Why the hell not? If nothing else, it's nice to know you can do it. And you might need to earn one day...
