We meet again.......2006-12-09

With the 'highpriest' Roy Haynes on drums,constantly spurring on Chick and Miroslav to reach their highest levels,we have a remarkable performance on our hands.Roy Haynes,a true surviver,is always on his game.I don't think he is capable of lacklustre playing.Always a suprise around the next corner,and the unmistakable crisp,clean,snap,crackle,pop 'signature voice'.A really energized set.Chick sounds like he's having the time of his life.He playing seems to sparkle when he is playing with Miroslav and Roy.These guys have a long history.Straight ahead and inspiring music.Enjoy

A reference recording in every sense.......2006-10-01

This is really one of those albums that have a special quality, a special magic inside. This is just one of those record you really would own. Believe me. One of those specials you search for going from one shop to another hungry for good music. This is it. It is REALLY one of the best records I own and in my case this means a lot because I own several thousands of Jazz records by masters of any era. This record is the document of a magic evening that Chick, Roy and Miroslav spent together playing the best music of their lifes. It is even, take note please, one of the best recorded trio music ever. If you are an AUDIOPHILE like myself you will find a very gratifying recording. Simply sit in front of your loudspeakers and let the music do the talking. No word from these guys is invain here. Everything is absolutly perfect believe me. This live album is one of the albums I take as a reference when people talk to me about Jazz trio. I don't own he other recording from this trio, the studio date, but I doubt it could be incredible as this one .. but I will buy it ASAP. The guys. Roy is jazz drumming , the contest is over. GAME OVER, Roy's the man! Miroslav is a very interesting bass player, with a big sound and very precious ideas and lines. And Chick .. consider that ususally, I don't particularly like Chick Corea's playing ... but in this case I can't do nothing but adore it. The program is very balanced there are standards and moments of a sort of classical music that is simply splendid. PURE MAGIC.

GREAT PLAYERS+GRATE MUSIC=GRATE DISC.......2003-02-06

A magic disc, with a great performance off all this musicians

Excellent.......2002-02-08

This is a great record. I'm glad I bought it. It seems that it's availability is limited - that's too bad. This is straight ahead jazz played by jazz masters - none of that weird stuff - just good music. It's one of the best records I own.

Excellent, excellent album.......2001-10-25

I'd give it four and a half stars if I could. I've had this album since the 80's and it just keeps getting better...not world changing on the order of 'A Love Supreme' or 'Charles Mingus Presents Charles Mingus', but a great recording of three talented musicians having a good night.

You get the impression that these guys were on tour for a long time: the ensemble work sounds telepathic. A rich and diverse journey, 'Live in Europe' starts out light with 'The Loop' and ends dark with a sublime 'Mirovisions'. Adventurous listening is provided along the way in the form of solo workouts from each member of the band: 'Prelude No.1/Mock Up' is about as exciting a piano improvisation as I've ever heard Chick Corea do (but I by no means have heard them all), 'Transformation' is a moody bowed bass solo, and 'Hittin' It' an atmospheric exploration of what must be a huge collection of exotic cymbals & bells.

Besides the great music, this album is notable (as, I've heard, all ECM releases are) for its sparkling production quality. Sound staging is excellent even on my non-audiophile system. It's hard to imagine how this was recorded live, as the stage must have been littered with microphone stands.

This album rewards close scrutiny as well as working perfectly well as background music when company comes over. A good choice for fans of any of the musicians represented, but more than that a stirring example of the fine art of jazz trio.
