Favourite ECM Titles


We all know ECM is releasing some amazing music both in sound quality as well as "Musical Value"!

They have released a bit over 1200 records if I am not mistaken!

Roscoe, what is the price for these tickets?

I'd try to speak to Keith not to hum during performance just in case:-)
Charles Lloyd, "The Call." With Billy Hart, Bobo Stenson, and Anders Jormin, this album is, for my money, at the top of Lloyd's recordings. You hear a lot about Lloyd's new group, which includes Jason Moran, but I've never heard him better than on this 1993 recording. It also has the virtue of being one of the most beautifully engineered albums in the ECM catalogue (or at least in that part of the catalogue that I own). Astonishing in every way.
Roscoe, if you like Jarrett you might want to check out some of the early Kenny Wheeler issues on this label (Deer Wan and Gnu High). Jarrett plays on the latter, not sure on the former. Wheeler along with Egberto Gismonti were (are) my favorite artists on this label. Gismonti s like a Brazillian Keith Jarrett: he's that versatile.
