Audio CD
Peacock
Publisher: Ecm Records
Released simultaneously on CD and vinyl (180 gram pressing) - the first new ECM vinyl release in 15 years! Here is the most successful piano trio in the world, playing the repertoire that most delights its audience - music from the Great American Songbook, - performed with a flair seldom equalled in the history of jazz. The set has a focus on bebop with Charlie Parker's "Scrapple from the Apple", "Shaw'nuff" by Parker and Dizzy Gillespie, and Horace Silver's "Strollin'". There is also a dazzling dash of ragtime in the shape of "You Took Advantage of Me", and beautiful ballads including Jerome Kern's "Yesterdays" and "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes".

| Keith's Story |

Once, long ago, Keith was traveling through an enchanted forest. He was suddenly startled by a high pitched, whiney sound, interspersed with long syllables, such as: Nee neeneee, nene....... Oooooooohh! He couldn't imagine what this was, or why it was happening. Just as he was pondering various possiblities, a tiny troll happened to come out from under a small bridge, which spanned a nearby stream. "Hello, Keith", he said. "I'm an enchanted troll, and I have the power to enable you play wonderful jazz piano. There is a catch, though". Of course, being intrigued by the notion, he listened intently. "What's the catch?", Keith replied. "You have to let me travel with you, wherever you go, sit under the piano, and sing along with your playing. I'm really an awful singer, and I make the most annoying sounds, but you'll be playing so great, that people will listen anyway!" Keith thought about it. "Will they buy my recordings as well"? Keith wondered aloud. "Yes. You'll have a long career with some great players, even though I'll be singing with you." "Okay. I'm in." Replied Keith. And the rest, is history.

El trío de Keith Jarret cumplió 25 años de exitosa carrera.
Precisamente, el disco Yesterdays aparece en medio de los festejos y de un intenso trabajo en vivo.
Grabado en un recital en Tokio, por el sello de culto ECM, el disco pone enfasis en bebop,
sosteniendo un apego mayor que otras veces a la línea melódica estándar.
Gran calidad del sonido, siempre con esa sensación de tridimensionalidad que los ingenieros logran traspasar al disco.
Mientras más viejo el trío, mejor sus interpretaciones, me parece a mí.

Bought this as a present for my dad. He's into jazz, and really likes the album. If you are into Keith Jarrett, you should enjoy it.

I'm one of those rabid Keith Jarrett fans that hangs on his every phrase. This album gives us a nice musical experience, but upon listening closely, I'm hearing quite a bit of distortion. Perhaps that cannot be avoided in a live album ... except for yes it can.

I certainly do not feel qualified to review a master like Jarrett, only to say that I am in awe of everything this trio does. Great listening!
