The Köln Concert

1975

ECM #PA-6053, Japanese Pressing

2x Vinyl LP,  Gatefold

The words 'landmark, and 'Iconic' are overused but this is regarded as one of the best Jazz concerts and recordings ever.

This is an ECM album from a concert given in Köln in 1975 by the pianist Keith Jarrett, in a free improvisational style.
Recorded on Neumann U 67 vacuum tube-powered condenser mics and a Telefunken portable tape machine.

This is a must for any serious Jazz lover. This album became the Best Selling Live Jazz release, and the best-selling Piano record.

Condition

Unbelievable and just fantastic sounding. Pristine, and as close to As New as possible, and now a 50 year old album. Amazing playing and recording. No digital here Doris. Quiet and detailed. Sleeve nice with obi, light discolouration.

Reference copy for any collector.
