5 out of 5 stars Simply Amazing.......2003-10-29

Jarrett's _Standards in Norway_ quite frankly blew my head off. It was one the first jazz albums that I owned, and in this sense was a realy introduction to modern jazz for me. The trio's sound is so textured; the listener feels as though he's actually sitting in the concert hall. Jarrett plays with a kind of frantic yet tempered emotion, the notes crescendoing up and down the keys.

What a wonderful album. I listen to it almost every day.

5 out of 5 stars Top notch.......2000-04-12

Yes, I give the reording the full star rating. The star ratings here at AMAZON tend to get a little crazy, but I can't possibly hold anything back for this one.

The standards trio is stunning here. The sound on this record is among the greatest of all their recordings, live from Oslo Konserthus (Concert Hall), so for any audiophile, this one is a must. As for all music fans, I would also like to say that this concert, to me, is one of the best, musically, waxed on record, in the more than 10-year lifespan of this band.

The tunes, standards, of course, are given their new life, just as one expects from Keith Jarrett, Gary Peacock and Jack DeJohnette. Among the most memorable are the versions of "All Of You" and "I Hear A Rhapsody", where there is so much love and joy the band is about to burst. The three gentlemen and incredible players are giving themselves totally to the music, swinging, in and out of the form, in a waving manner of conversation, elegant, fluent, strainless, simply beautiful. This is as good as trio music got in the last century!

Also, check out the 6CD box from the Blue Note, a gem for any fan of this group.
