Keith Jarrett: The Old Country: More from the Deer Head Inn
Il materiale, che va a integrare quanto già edito ormai quasi trentun anni fa in At the Deer Head Inn (il sottotitolo di questo secondo volume parla non a caso di More from the Deer Head Inn), alterna come sempre morbide ballad a episodi ben più tirati (ma sempre con quell'inconfondibile aplomb), abbracciando Cole Porter (due temi), Gershwin Brothers, Monk, Nat Adderley (la titletrack), oltre all'amatissimo (da Jarrett e ancor più dal suo mentore Bill Evans) "Someday My Prince Will Come," e tutto marcia per la direttrice, quasi col pilota automatico, costituendo sempre un gran bel sentire.
A volerne indicare i potenziali vertici, opteremmo per l'iniziale "Everything I Love," "Straight No Chaser," "All Of You," il già menzionato "Someday My Prince Will Come" e "Golden Earrings," pur sempre all'interno di un "serbatoio" di estrema omogeneità, in cui magari non andremo a scovare grandi sorprese, ma sempre un jazz "di repertorio" assolutamente esemplare. Anche per luminosità, impeccabilità poetica-espressiva e pura bellezza.
