It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

RE: LOL, set the standard

Well, I 'waste my time' listening to all of those, except for Lewis, I haven't picked up any of his yet, but did hear some on the radio. And I've heard Brendel (and Goode) in person. It's easy to understand how Brendel's introspective style wouldn't be to everyone's taste, but like the others, he certainly earned his career solely on his own merits. He came from a modest, non-musical family, wasn't charismatic or unusually good looking, didn't wear tight miniskirts, had no special contacts, didn't engage in backstage machinations AFAIK, toiled in obscurity for many years, recording for the budget label Vox, and finally was noticed by the major labels after a recital in London. I can't call anyone with that background overrated.
