Free Music Notes for Rarum 1: Selected Recordings (Dig)
Free Music Review: A fine collection
Hit: 4 Stars
This is a worthy introduction to the many talents of Keith Jarrett. Two CD's cover a broad spectrumof his ECM career with many of the highlights covered.
From a Jazz point of view the 'European Quartet' material with Jan Garbarek is the undoubted highlight. There are two tracks from Belonging - "The Windup" and "Long as you know you're living yours". As well as "Late Night Willie" from Personal Mountains. These three are fantastic tracks and you won't find any 70's Jazz thats better than this. The Standards Trio material is almost as good. Perhaps the only reason I prefer the quartet is just the variety of sound the Tenor Sax adds. The interplay on the Trio tracks is as good if not better - "The Cure" being a good example. The Live at The Blue note tracks are excellent as well.
The remaining material is a mixed bag and personal taste will decide a lot. I loved the Book of Ways material. This still improvised but in a such a way that it could have been written for the Clavichord it was played on. Whereas I was much less keen on the material from Spirits.
If you already have a lot of Jarrett you'll probably give this miss, but it is a very good sampler. Having bought it for somebodyelse and heard it a lot now it has certainly inspired me to want to get a few key albums that are missing from my collection.
Rarum 1: Selected Recordings (Dig) Poster
In programming his two-disc entry in ECM's :rarum series, for which the artists select tracks and provide written comments, pianist Keith Jarrett included recordings "that either have been heard less than I feel is their due or have escaped recent awareness." Open-minded listeners should rise to the challenge posed by this characteristically idiosyncratic collection, which includes solo pipe organ and clavichord performances, and tracks from Spirits, Jarrett's love-it-or-hate-it experiment in multi-instrumental overdubbing, recorded in 1985. Jazz travelers may find this an uneven journey, particularly those who prize him most for his solo piano epics. Time limitations prevent the inclusion of sides from landmark efforts such as the 1975 K?ln Concert (the set's shorter solo sides include an 11-minute excerpt from his 1981 Munich concerts, presented on CD for the first time, and tracks from 1987's so-so Dark Intervals, recorded in Tokyo). The highlights include performances by Jarrett's brilliant longstanding "standards" trio with Gary Peacock and Jack DeJohnette, and his '70s European quartet with Norwegian saxophonist and labelmate Jan Garbarek, who provide an unlikely but winning setting for his gospel chops. As inconsistent and elusive as this selected Jarrett may be, it provides a fresh setting in which to sample his daring, intensely lyrical approach. ECM's first foray into 24 bit/96kHz remasterings adds to the eventfulness of this release. --Lloyd SachsJazz Music CDs
