His work on "Good Feeling," the band's most recent single, was excellent, remaining in the upper register of his instrument, but neither repetitive nor boring--a considerable feat considering the rock guitarist's preoccupation with high notes.

As Monday evening's concert demonstrated once again, he combines with consummate artistry the lucid insight of a musicologist, the precise execution of a virtuoso, and the upretentious sincerity of his personality, to recreate music for the piano in a very convincing...
