Broadcast on 30-Jun-2008

This group consisting of Keith Jarrett on piano, Gary Peacock on bass and Jack DeJohnette on drums is one of the most distinctive piano/bass/drum trios in the history of Jazz. Jarrett never calls this "The Keith Jarrett Trio" because, despite the fact that he is the leading voice, he feels that the other two are part of an organic whole. Tonight's Feature is the third recording done in January 1983 when this band did two albums of standards from The Great American Songbook then did a third album of free form music called "Changes". It is the latter that we'll hear tonight. It was at these 1983 sessions for ECM that the band came together and became permanent. The rest is history.
