Bop-Be ... LP Impulse, 1978. Very Good+ ... $9.99

Expectations ... CD Columbia/Legacy (France), 1972. Used ... Just Sold Out!
A totally wonderful album from the young Keith Jarrett – and a set that's different than most of the pianist's other well-known modes – not his solo improvisations, not his successful trio material, and not even his more outside quartet modes of the 70s – but instead this ... read more CD

Mysteries ... CD Impulse, 1975. Used ... $6.99
Dark and moody work from Keith Jarrett – a record that builds strongly off his ensemble feeling of the Impulse years, but which also seems to carry a bit more of the introspective vibe he was building up in some of his more stripped down solo recordings!
