Glorious music
In for a penny...
Recorded in 1979, it was released on ECM Records 33 years later, in 2012.
The two albums that followed are both live and contain 6 of these 7 tracks. [
Personal Mountains and
Nude Ants]
Apparently,
Sleeper was recorded better too
Of some interest:
April 1979 Tour in Japan:
Personal Mountains was released by ECM Records in 1989 and contains tracks from different concerts performed in Tokyo in April 1979. According to
http://www.keithjarrett.org, that April Jarrett's "European Quartet" toured Japan performing 13 times in 20 days which also gave way to
Sleeper.
Nude Ants was released by ECM Records in 1980. It was recorded during different live performances by Jarrett's 'European Quartet' at the Village Vanguard in New York City in May 1979. The title of the album is a play on the phrase "New Dance", which is the title of the penultimate song.
Five of the tracks are on
Sleeper too with a couple from
Personal Mountains -
Nude Ants came first
Wonderful music
