Live Jazz Trio Recordings

Here's a couple more live ones:

Art Pepper- More for Les at the Village Vanguard

Medeski,Martin & Wood- Tonic

KEITH JARRETT TRIO - with Jack DeJohnette and Gary Peacock. The two most recent releases are in the free jazz mold and a bit of a challenge for the listener, but well worth the effort. Other KJT releases from the early 80's to late 90's offer a wonderful assortment of standards and Jarrett-composed pieces that are musical, tuneful, skillful and artful.

My favourites are: Whisper Not, Tokyo '96, Standards in Norway, The Cure, but there are many more to add to my collection.

Bill Evans Trio: Live at Town Hall Vol.1 on Verve. Nice recording, virtuoso performance. don't know if it has been repressed, but there are lots of original pressings of it on the used market. I recently picked this gem up on a trip to the Princeton Record Exchange.

Soulive has just release a new live CD on Blue Note.

Interesting trio- drums, guitar and Hammond B3.

Good CD for rockers trying to get into Jazz.

Ahmad Jamal- "In Search of Momentun."

Age 72, and this guy can still cook.
