About
180g audiophile vinyl reissue of the coming-together of Jarrett's European Quartet, recorded in 1974.
"Three ballads and three powerfully rhythmic pieces demonstrate Jarrett's genius for understanding and bringing out the musical essence of his associates", as biographer Ian Car wrote. Jarrett composes for the springing rhythms of Jon Christensen's drums and Jan Garbarek's declamatory sax, with delightful results. - Jazz Forum Record of the Year 1975/76.
