I watched the Keith Jarrett concert I mentioned on BBC4 last night. I didn't realise it had been made in 2005.
I've had a couple of his CDs for well over 20 years.
This is my favourite recording of his. It might bring a tear to your eye.
I uploaded it to YouTube twenty years ago but they took it down and gave me a "telling off" for uploading it, (copyright strike), yet later, an inferior different recording of the same tune was left on!
So I put mine on "Box."
Ballad of the Sad Young Men, by Tommy Wolf and Fran Landesman.
Written in the fifties but in a much older style. It's a concert performance with his trio with Gary Peacock bass and Jack DeJohnette drums.
The played together for thirty years.
Gary Peacock died last year.

This documentary was made in 2005. Sad that he stopped playing a couple of years ago, after his two strokes.
He was also as good a classical pianist, recording a lot of CDs as well as all his jazz recordings.
It was also sad about his wife Rose who was featured in the documentary explaining how she was the trio's "roady" and all the organising she had to do. Anyone watching this might not have realised that they divorced five years five years later, after being together for 30 years.
I'm now watching a 1977 Old Grey Whistle Test, featuring Manhattan Transfer.
I've always liked Janis Seigel, here's her still singing nine years ago.
