The Old Country (CD)

The Old Country (CD)

ā€œThis particular evening was a warm, humid, rainy autumn night in the Pocono Mountains. The room was full of people and outside on the porch more people listened through the screen doors.ā€ - Keith Jarrett

Keith Jarrett’s recordings from the Deer Head Inn have a special place among his recordings devoted to explorations of jazz standards and the American songbook. And The Old Country is a document of particular historical significance, from several perspectives.

When At The Deer Head Inn was issued in 1994, the press agreed. ā€œThe music has the dash and the unabashed lyricism of Keith Jarrett’s best work,ā€ wrote Stereophile. Gramophone, meanwhile, spoke of ā€œspellbindingā€ playing, and the Los Angeles Times hailed ā€œa compendium of graceā€.

Thirty years later, it was time to revisit the material. Keith Jarrett and Manfred Eicher selected the eight previously unreleased pieces that comprise The Old Country, a second volume from the Deer Head performance.

ARTISTS
Keith Jarrett, piano
Paul Motian, drums
Gary Peacock, double bass
