Keith Jarrett Recomendations

Arbor Zena, no "humming" on this one.

My favorites are definitely the following:

The Blue Note box set - but you can get the single Saturday performance. Great music

Whisper Not - amazing and more bop than other recordings of his

Incidentally, I'm not big fan of the free stuff and the solo stuff

No humming? Then how do you know it's Keith?

Live at the Blue Note six-CD is the best for me, with a more intimate sound than other live recordings (due to the smaller place) and a very nice bass sound. The ballads in this record are absolutely outstanding.
Although I like all the standard trio works, my favorites are "Whisper Not" (Live in Paris) and Tokyo 1996.
In the Solo area, "La Scala" is a nice recording as is "The melody at night with you"
I don't like him whem plays in "free" style (Inside Out or Always Let Me Go). Thousgh, enjoy one of the best piano players-improvisers in the jazz world

The Koln Concert is the one for me...
But like everyone said, hard to pin it down. He's a talent, that's for sure. Cheers,
Spencer
