One of only a handful of Keith Jarrett "Standards" Trio records without a standard within earshot, this is a triumph, for Jarrett has successfully brought the organically evolving patterns of his solo concerts into the group format. Each of the first three selections is built upon a constant revolving ostinato, and each evolves from one stage to the next like a Jarrett solo piano improvisation. "Dancing" has a swaying Latin beat in the percussion and bass; "Endless" is full of lyrical invention at a slower tempo; "Lifeline" is catchy and hypnotic; and the fourth number, "Ecstasy," grows out of "Lifeline," closing the album perhaps inevitably with a drawn-out, peaceful piano tremolo. Bassist Gary Peacock and drummer Jack DeJohnette are clearly listening hard, going with the flow. The recordings were taken from four separate concerts in Denver, Dallas, Lexington, KY., and Houston. Jarrett may spout off about society's self-centered soullessness in his querulous liner notes, but he and his trio have clearly backed his words by example, pulling off a genuine collective musical experience. ~ Richard S. Ginell Keith Jarrett's trio usually plays standards, but this time out it performs four Jarrett originals, all of which possess a gorgeously hypnotic openness. The slowly evolving moods (a simple theme is started and undulates over the course of an extended improvisation) and folkish bearing have a great deal in common with Jarrett's solo recordings. They evolve by addition and subtraction as subtle variations on the core melodic identity of the piece. Bassist Gary Peacock's dazzlingly playful performance on "Dancing," and drummer Jack DeJohnette's explosive improvisations on "Ecstacy," are just two moments among many that display the trio's powerful strengths. The four pieces were recorded live, each in a different city, during a US tour in 1987. As usual with ECM Records, the sound quality is pristine. Keith Jarrett Changeless Songs Changeless Review

$16.45 EXCLAIM! (Canada) September 2008Destination Out - Experimental & Avant Garde ReviewsAndy Haas - The Ruins Of America By David DacksFormer Martha and the Muffins sax player Andy Haas has lived in New York for two decades. He's been an active participant in the improvising flank of post-no-wave musicians. Haas was under-recorded until a few years ago but The Ruins of America marks his fifth album in the last three years. This time, he flies solo on wind instruments and live electronics, unaccompanied by any rhythm elements. Haas's electronically processed soprano sax, Korean piri and fife represent some of the most dynamic and interactive use of augmented acoustic sources in the world today. But these are no unstructured improvisations — everything is grounded in Haas's twisted yet faithful takes on traditional Americana. Classic tunes by Irving Berlin, Antonio Carlos Jobim and others are forced through extreme harmonization and delay settings, yet there is always faithfulness to the source material. This is brilliantly displayed in the four-part title track, which fillets "America The Beautiful." America may be beautiful but it's terrifying and grotesque as well. As with all his work, Haas's knowledge of Asian techniques and harmonies adds more than just ironic overtones to these resolutely American songs. Haas forces globalization and modernity on these songs of the fading giant. The Ruins of America - Andy HaasSignal to Noise Magazine reviewFall 2008 Ask most people about "protest music" and I'll bet they think of Woody Guthrie, Phil Ochs, and Buffy Sainte-Marie, or just maybe the politicized punk rock of Crass, the Ex, and Dead Kennedys. But protest music has a substantial history in jazz and improv, too. Charles Mingus's "Fables ...
