Best Keith Jarrett records

I'm surprised there hasn't been more praise for The Melody at Night With You. It's subtle and especially nice for late night listening. I also like Whisper Not.

See my other thread on this subject. The Koln Concert is out on 96/24 on HDTracks. A must have for Jarrett afficionados.

Changes, IMHO is "his" best. KJ, GP & JdJ trio. Also like from the same trio and as mentioned previously by Jfrech thier most recent ECM release Yesterdays. A fantastic recording with amazing imaging sounds stage and detail. It is recorded live in Tokyo. I also have DVD of the same Tokyo recordings.

Couple of nights ago I was listening to Yesterdays with my wife and 18 month old son. My son was dancing and running around as he normally does, then at the end of the track when the applause started my son freaked out! But no worries by the end of the second track he was clapping along with the crowd.

I have yet to hear Jasmine but I can only imagine that it must be great given all the positive comments hear on the gon.

Also check-out Jack DeJohnette, Tin Can Alley.

I tried The Melody at Night, and listened many times. It just bored me; and I generally like ballads and "quiet" music. I liked Jasmine more, but still didn't think it was great as many people do.

Lots of great suggestions here. I'd just offer a strong second to Jasmine and the box set, Live at the Blue Note. For me, it just doesn't get any better than the Blue Note. Those were three very special evenings, evidently: alive and swinging throughout.
