Up for It: Live in Juan-Les-Pins
Those who believe that telepathy does not exist should check out this  record. This trio--consisting of pianist Keith Jarrett, drummer Jack  DeJohnette, and bassist Gary Peacock--has been perfecting the science of syncopated thought for two decades. Recorded in the South of France, it has all of the elements of the group's celebrated studio recordings. Jarrett's elegiac and encyclopedic pianisms, Peacock's intelligent basslines, and DeJohnette's intricate and inspired drumwork turn time-worn standard's such as "If I Were a Bell" and "Someday My Prince Will Come" into intense and intimate sound portraits.Bill Evans' famous trio with Scott LaFaro and Paul Motian may have set the mold, but Jarrett, Peacock, and DeJohnette have broke it in their own sweet, swinging, and soulful way.--Eugene Holley, Jr.
