Keith Jarrett: The Melody At Night, With You

Read "The Melody At Night, With You" reviewed by David Adler

by David Adler

I once heard a well-known pianist refer to Keith Jarrett as “the Elton John of jazz," and it wasn’t a slam. I think James Taylor is more like it. Taylor’s music has a certain country-blues Americanism; it lives in a galaxy nearer to Jarrett’s gospel- and folk-tinged songs and improvisations. It’s true, Jarrett has always been ...

Kenny Wheeler: A Long Time Ago: Music for Brass Ensemble and Soloists

Read "A Long Time Ago: Music for Brass Ensemble and Soloists" reviewed by David Adler

by David Adler

Kenny Wheeler’s records for the most part have featured small groups dotted with big names from the ECM stable: Dave Holland, Jack DeJohnette, Keith Jarrett, John Abercrombie, Peter Erskine, Bill Frisell, and so on. Here the Canadian-born trumpeter/composer recruits a brass ensemble from his adopted home, England. There are four trumpets, two trombones, two bass trombones, ...

Paul Bley/Gary Peacock/Paul Motian: Not Two, Not One

Read "Not Two, Not One" reviewed by David Adler

by David Adler

Despite its esoteric thrust, this music is suffused with the classic sound of the jazz piano trio. And if anyone knows the format inside and out, it’s these three men. Pianist Paul Bley started out as a bebopper in the 50s, playing trio with Mingus and Art Blakey. A decade later, drummer Paul Motian played a ...

John Abercrombie: Open Land

Read "Open Land" reviewed by David Adler

by David Adler

John Abercrombie’s guitar tone has changed a lot over the years. I am particularly fond of his late 70s quartet with Richard Beirach, George Mraz, and Peter Donald. Back then his sound was extremely dark—nearly underwater in fact, with no treble to speak of. Lately it’s developed a lot more flesh and attack. On this new ...

Paul Bley - Gary Peacock - Paul Motian: Not Two, Not One

Read "Not Two, Not One" reviewed by Glenn Astarita

by Glenn Astarita

Not Two, Not One is the first recording featuring Paul Bley, Paul Motian and Gary Peacock as a working unit since Bley’s 1970 ECM recording titled, “Paul Bley with Gary Peacock”. Twenty-nine years later they reunite as the overall results prove to be substantially rewarding. Aided by ECM’s trademark pristine sound quality and masterful engineering by ...

John Abercrombie: Open Land

Read "Open Land" reviewed by Glenn Astarita

by Glenn Astarita

One of the true treasures of Modern Jazz, guitarist John Abercrombie’s impressive and somewhat legendary recorded legacy continues with Open Land. Here, Abercrombie expands his longtime “organ trio” group consisting of organist Dan Wall and drummer Adam Nussbaum while garnering the rather estimable support of special guests, saxophonist Joe Lovano, trumpeter Kenny Wheeler and violinist Mark ...

Keith Jarrett: The Melody At Night, With You

Read "The Melody At Night, With You" reviewed by Glenn Astarita

by Glenn Astarita

Pianist Keith Jarrett goes it alone on The Melody at Night, With You. No stranger to solo recitals, here Jarrett tackles familiar standards along with a few traditional pieces and as we come to expect, the performances are near flawless. Part of the beauty and majesty of it all lies within Jarrett's penchant for understatement and ...
