ECM SACD

[duxservit]

FYI for folks who love ECM and prefer SACDs, Tower Records in Japan will be coming out with two more ECM re-issues on SACD.

 

— Keith Jarrett Trio, Standards Live (1986). 

— Keith Jarrett Trio, Changes (1984). 

 

Well done ECM !

I have the Keith Jarrett Sun Bear Concerts on SACD. Excellent.

The Sun Bear SACDs were kind of a surprise because initially they said they were issuing Richie Beirach (“Hubris”) for the last quarter of 2017. 

 

After Koln Concerts, Sun Bear is my favorite Jarrett solo

— Pat Metheny, Travels, 2 discs. 

— Charlie Haden, Magico. 

— Gary Peacock, Tales of Another.

Hi!

Do you have any of the Jarrett SACDs, particularly "Standards Live" or "Changes"? How do they sound?

Seems Tower Records in Japan has sold out. My understanding is that it was a very limited run (900 sets). 

 

Best try might be eBay or Discogs.

‘Standards live is excellent. Haven’t heard Changes as yet.

The Sun Bear SACD was a 1,000 press run (I almost wonder if it was fewer than this?). There are NONE anywhere. I have a feeling when they do pop up for sale it will be a $500 minimum price since the old Japanese version (I own that as well) were going for big $$ and measure a slightly improved DR over the regular issue. The SACD measures exactly the same as the JPN version. An excellent recording to begin with and this takes it up a bit.
