Joe M Posted July 4, 2003 Report Posted July 4, 2003 I'm surprised no one has talked about this new cd yet. It was recorded live at Antibes last year. It's a very inspired trio set, recorded under some apparently less than perfect conditions, but all three (Peacock and DeJohnette) rise to the occasion. I think it's easily among the best cds by the group. Almost all of the material has been recorded by Keith, but it's all very fresh. Keith's solo on Someday My Prince will come also really surprised me, for at times it sounds (at least to these ears) as though he's making some very subtle allusions to Wynton Kelly's solo on the Miles album of the same name, which certainly caught me off guard. He's not quoting Wynton, but at times he approaches the various changes in a way that seems to make reference to Kelly's solo. It's also interesting to hear the trio return with a cd of standards after the last two records, they sound energized. Any thoughts? Quote
Guest Mnytime Posted July 4, 2003 Report Posted July 4, 2003 I believe they are playing at the new Disney Hall later in the year. But I believe it is around $100+ for a ticket. Quote
CJ Shearn Posted July 4, 2003 Report Posted July 4, 2003 yes it is a good CD, "Autumn Leaves" cooks! Quote
DrJ Posted July 5, 2003 Report Posted July 5, 2003 I haven't heard this one yet, hope to soon. Can't quite keep up with this juggernaut of a tro - still digesting and enjoying the fine WHISPER NOT (ECM). Quote

Can't quite keep up with this juggernaut of a tro - still digesting and enjoying the fine WHISPER NOT (ECM). Well considering they are the most recorded Trio in Jazz History it is understandable. One thing for sure Jarrett must be the best paid Jazz Musician today. If he isn't #1 he has to be a top 5 at the least. Even with the high prices of the Disney Hall show it sold out quickly. And we are not talking about a small place. I think it is supposed to hold 4000+ people. Though I am not sure on this. Does anyone know if they even started having peformances yet or is that later in the year. Edited July 5, 2003 by Mnytime Quote
Guest Mnytime Posted July 5, 2003 Report Posted July 5, 2003 (edited) Just checked it only has 2,273 seats. The model of what it is supposed to look like Edited July 5, 2003 by Mnytime Quote
