Keith Jarrett’Gary Peacock/Jack DeJohnette “After the Fall” ECM 2 cd set, disc 2


A concert after Jarrett’s first battle with chronic fatigue. An excellent show!

Revisiting this new SHM-SACD from Japan. . . wow, this sounds good.

It’s the “over-dubbed” version and is probably the best I’ve ever heard this. Beautiful lp facsimile gatefold packaging as well. Part of the Acoustic Sound SACD series.

This and the companion LP are both exceptional!

A fine Mosaic box set, and for those not willing to buy in to the Mosaic CD box set the Sonny Clark Dial S for Sonny LPs are worth seeking out.

Not to take anything away from Anthony, Thurman or Ray, but I am really digging John Lindberg’s bass on Anthony Braxton’s Seven Compositions 1978.

Saw Aurora Nealand at the Hyde Park Jazz Festival this past weekend, as well as Instigation Festival. She seemed a bit off to these ears, which was a bit of a surprise.
