Questlove tries to salvage something of musical value from a (the) Philip Michael Thomas album

2009.07.10 by room34.com

I just started following Questlove (drummer of The Roots) on Twitter less than an hour ago, and it’s already paid off with this little gem, which I believe is how he’s spending his summer vacation (i.e. week off from Late Night with Jimmy Fallon). Nice. It’s cool to see him in action at home (a.k.a. the studio).

Since the video is so tantalizingly incomplete, he has also shared the finished product.

This is the first time I've ever seen a performance of 4'33". It's a polarizing work, to be sure. You love it or you hate it. Or maybe you get it or you don't. Or you get it, but you still don't... »
