“The music has the dash an the unabashed lyricism of Keith Jarrett’s best work” wrote Sterophile in a rave-review of the first selection from the intimate Deer Head Inn live recording, capturing Jarrett’s spontaneous and in retrospect historic return to the Pennsylvanian venue of his early years, alongside Gary Peacock and Paul Motian. The second release – titled The Old Country and released 30 years after the first volume in 2024 – was met with equal acclaim – The Guardian’s John Fordham called it “song-based jazz-imagining at its best”. Here both albums are combined and released on vinyl for the very first time, spread across four LPs in two tip-on gatefold jackets and framed by a deluxe slipcase: The Complete Recordings. There won’t be a second print-run of this box-set, limiting it strictly to this edition. Keith Jarrett: “I think you can hear on this tape what jazz is all about.”
