Review by Richard S. Ginell
For Keith Jarrett, this extremely satisfying concert with the Standards Trio on two CDs is a personal landmark, the first for-the-record sign that he had recovered from the chronic fatigue syndrome that laid him low for three years in the late 1990s. Indeed, by the time this Paris gig took place, he had come all the way back -- his technical facilities intact (a handful of smeared notes aside), his inventiveness bubbling over. Old cohorts Gary Peacock (bass) and Jack DeJohnette (drums) are back, too, regenerating their propulsive, swinging, collective E.S.P. at will. Not too much has changed from the pre-illness days, though the focus is very much on classic bebop now -- with Bud Powell getting a good deal of attention with an outstanding "Bouncing With Bud" and a terrific "Hallucinations" that has an atypically funny false ending. Jarrett's bebop runs on "Groovin' High" are astonishing, "Wrap Your Troubles in Dreams" is appealingly jaunty and carefree, and ballads like "'Round Midnight" and "Prelude to a Kiss" revert to the melodic simplicity that was cultivated during Jarrett's down time. Even though the Standards Trio has been one of the most prolifically recorded groups of its era, only the final encore, "When I Fall in Love," had been recorded before by this group. So even those who think they have enough material by this group will be rightly tempted to invest in this document of Jarrett's resurrection.

Reseña de Richard S. Ginell
Para Keith Jarrett, este concierto extremadamente satisfactorio con el Trío Standards en dos CD es un hito personal, la primera señal histórica de que se había recuperado del síndrome de fatiga crónica que lo mantuvo deprimido durante tres años a fines de la década de 1990. De hecho, para cuando se llevó a cabo este concierto en París, había regresado por completo: sus instalaciones técnicas intactas( aparte de un puñado de notas manchadas), su inventiva burbujeando. Los viejos cohortes Gary Peacock (bajo) y Jack DeJohnette (batería) también están de regreso, regenerando su propulsor, oscilante y colectivo E. S. P. a voluntad. No ha cambiado demasiado desde los días previos a la enfermedad , aunque ahora la atención se centra en gran medida en el bebop clásico with con Bud Powell recibiendo mucha atención con un sobresaliente "Bouncing With Bud" y una excelente "Alucinaciones" que tiene un final falso atípicamente divertido. Las carreras de bebop de Jarrett en "Groovin' High "son asombrosas," Wrap Your Troubles in Dreams "es atractivamente alegre y despreocupada, y baladas como" 'Round Midnight" y "Prelude to a Kiss" vuelven a la simplicidad melódica que se cultivó durante el tiempo de inactividad de Jarrett. A pesar de que el Trío de Estándares ha sido uno de los grupos más prolíficamente grabados de su época, solo el bis final, "When I Fall in Love", había sido grabado antes por este grupo. Entonces, incluso aquellos que piensan que tienen suficiente material de este grupo se verán tentados, con razón, a invertir en este documento de la resurrección de Jarrett.
