Mayo Thompson, 2023[1]
The Ad Reinhardt tune, that's Mozart's piano concerto. [...] The piano player in there I'd gotten — it was a studio in London — the Russians had just invaded the Crimea and we were trying to record. I said, do you know anybody who can play Mozart? And I had this Mozart book. And they said "oh yeah" and they got me one of the piano players Tom Rogerson out of Three Trapped Tigers and he [mimics fast tapping] plays like crazy. So I have had the luck always to be able to work with good musicians.
