I'm familiar with the Jarrett but will check out the other two you've mentioned. 

@bigtwin 

They also did a second, 2 CD release: "Trilogy 2".

Well, OK but given just how many live recordings Jarrett has released, odds are no-one has heard them all. ;o)

There aren't as many live Miles releases (definitely not hundreds)  but the "Bootleg Series" has certainly increased their number.

I don't know why Harrell isn't better known. Or Charles Tolliver, for that matter. I haven't heard any live Harrell recordings. Have you? We're focusing on live releases, here. Accordingly, can you suggest a live Steve Turre recording you like?  

I apologize...

I realize i miss the point...

😊

I dont distinguish between live or in studio, apart for the different soundfield in the recording process...

My best live jazz recording or i must say my favorite live recording is this one :

 

How do we insert an image ?

It does not work anymore it seems ?

Anyway title : "trumpet summit philarmonie de Paris 2016 " very entertaining live recording of 4 trumpet masters with Cohen and Harrell and two french one.. The "live" aspect make this album shine... 2 hours of perfect pleasure...

 

For Turre i had many albums and i dont remember which one is live or if one is live.. Sorry ... All his albums are more than good...

@mahgister

No problem! My thinking, in making such a distinction, was simply that live recordings can provide a sense of being "with the musicians, in the club", as the music is unfolding, moment-to-moment. I don’t regard live recordings as inherently superior, but they can offer a greater sense of "immediacy".

I don’t know how to insert an image -- it used to happen automatically, when the url was typed but that changed at some point. I’m afraid my computer skills are elementary at best!

I will look for the trumpet recording you mentioned and see if I can find any live Turre recordings.

 

@mahgister

OK ... to embed url, select the "chain" image to the right of the emoji image at the top of the audiogon text box. 

A Link box will open, where you can paste the url.
