Never Stop (The Bad Plus album)

Never Stop is the seventh studio album by American jazz trio The Bad Plus, released on September 14, 2010 by E1 Music label.

But, all things considered, this release is predominantly an imaginative, confident offering of jazz piano trio laced with strength, tightness of sound and execution that reflects the past decade of constant recording and performance.

"[4] In his review for AllMusic, Thom Jurek wrote, "The Bad Plus' originals have always been provocative, but being parceled between covers, their impact was unduly blunted.

Hearing an entire program of them on Never Stop offers listeners a full appreciation of just how innovative and creative -- and yet accessible -- they are, even as they redefine and expand the role of the piano trio in jazz.

"[5] Jim Farber of New York Daily News commented, "Despite having no singer, and shunning familiar covers, "Never Stop" honors the band's tradition of balancing beauty and disruption.
