song, the bad plus, oi

i first heard this band at the Cape Town Jazz Festival earlier this year. i had no idea who they were, but from the get go i was sold. they were playing their rendition of nirvana's "smells like teen spirit" and they gave it a decidedly mellow tinge, with a bit of a rebellious kick nonetheless, true to the original.

but it was when they performed the song "people like you" that they truly began speaking to me. it's slow, jazzy and sounds like the motif for that film you once saw about the girl leaving the guy behind, heart in hand, hope in hell. it's a beautiful song. it reminds me of everyone, ever get that feeling?
