This is on my iPod and while I've loved Keith Jarrett's work since my 20's -- this has to be the best album in a decade. The Trio has been wonderful, especially in the Standards work, but in this album something positively wonderful happens. DeJohnette is especially amazing this time: he elicits a huge pallette of different timbres from the variety of instruments that he plays. The album seems fun for the participants: you can hear them chatting between the songs, for instance. In the end, the combination of lyrical impulses and strong rhythms is well worth listening to -- over and over. And so: I have.
