The best hang in music. Jazz pianists Adam Maness and Peter Martin break down the greatest albums of all time, track-by-track. Like Thriller, Kid A, Songs In the Key of Life, Aja, and Voodoo.

Then, watch them perform their favorite track with our in-house band: One shot, one take. You'll never hear music the same way again.
