A shocking item has appeared that records Keith Jarrett’s Tokyo performance from his first visit to Japan in 1974 in official quality sound quality. Let’s take a look at the details of Keith Jarrett’s first performance in Japan in 1974, which was a memorable moment for the Japanese jazz scene.

All of the performances will be live in what is commonly known as the American Quartet, and this will be Keith’s first performance in Japan. From that first performance in Japan, the one that was released this time will be the Tokyo Postal Savings Hall performance on January 12th. Furthermore, the announcement by Yoshio Gyoda, who appeared at the opening, and the member introductions are also recorded, so you can fully feel the excitement of the venue. Now, regarding the important sound quality, we use a master sound source that you would never believe was recorded 45 years ago, and it is a perfect stereo recording with almost no deterioration over time. The quartet, consisting of Dewey Lettman on tenor, Charlie Haden on bass, and Paul Motian on drums, is all here in a mystical tension, improvising with all their heart and soul. The sense of spiritual unity that cannot be reproduced in a studio recording can be called a truly terrifying performance that even makes you shudder as you listen to it from the beginning! ! In addition, there is a part where the sound is slightly distorted for only a few seconds during Paul Motian’s drum solo. Please forgive the tape from 45 years ago.
