a heavy concert
Keith plays two halves of a show of improvised music. The audience of course goes NUTS. He returns 5 times, treating them to some of the most beautiful piano ever played. The impact of the first encore is overwhelming. And the wave keeps cresting. There is a beautiful version of "My Song." He ends up with "Time On My Hands".... The 5 minutes or more of applause between the encores interrupts the flow of the record, but probably was an absolutely powerful thing to feel in the context of such a performance in NYC.
