Robert Glasper - Covered
Kamasi Washington - The Epic
Glasper (piano) and Washington (sax) both provided much instrumentation (along w/ Thundercat) to To Pimp A Butterfly...

Yeah, I've had The Epic for some time, and I've enjoyed it well enough, but I disagree with a lot of the reviews I've read that seem to attribute some true originality to Washington's work, because the way I see/hear it, he's re-hashing several different eras of Coltrane, Pharoah Sanders and others. I think it was my comment about this that sparked that really long discussion jazz earlier in the thread (or was that at in the "What are you listening to?" thread? Meh. Dunno.)
I haven't heard the other, but I'll check out your thread and give it a listen.
Thanks!
