The Bad Plus é o nome de uma banda de rapazes hiperactivos e de algum mau gosto, com um blog muito interessante. Têm vindo a fazer uma espécie de questionário de Verão natalício a alguns músicos, entre eles os monumentais Brad Mehldau e Jason Moran. Vale a pena ler, para procurarmos as peças que não conhecemos e regozijarmo-nos com as escolhas estranhas que acertam mesmo no nosso gosto peculiar: Moran escolhe a música do Preço Certo e Reid Anderson elogia a melodia do primeiro andamento do concerto para violino de Barber.
