No, it's not Sunset Rubdown, but Spencer Krug's beautiful, elegiac solo piano performance was yet another triumph from one of the greatest musicians in the world today. He's ditched the virgin ghost snakes of old to sing about love and stuff, but he's still got an ear for an expressive, eccentric turn of phrase, and there's still hints of the piano-crashing mania of old. Not sure if it's better than the work he did with Siinai, but one can't fault the guy for refusing to remain tied to the past.
