Paul Motian | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

“The music has the dash and the unabashed lyricism of Keith Jarrett’s best work,” wrote Stereophile in 1994 of At The Deer Head Inn, the first selection of material from the pianist’s spontaneous and in retrospect historic return to the Pennsylvanian venue of his early years. Gramophone spoke of “spellbinding” playing, and the Los Angeles Times hailed “a compendium of grace”. All attributes applicable also to this edition, featuring eight previously unreleased performances, which dives deeply into the magic of this special event, a one-night-only coming together of a Jarrett trio with Gary Peacock and Paul Motian. Keith Jarrett: “It was like a reunion and a jam session at the same time.” Songs featured are “Everything I Love”, “I Fall In Love Too Easily, “All of You”, “Someday My Prince Will Come”, “Golden Earrings”, “How Long Has This Been Going On” and a wonderful bluesy account of the Nat Adderley tune that gives the album its name. An attentive and amazed audience hangs on every note.
